Atco Raceway in New Jersey would be the closest one I think. Its a pretty good track, but on a crowded night, SOME runs are not guaranteed, maybe about 2. And street cars are only allowed on the track on tuesdays, thursdays, and fridays from the hours of 5pm-midnight.

Yup Atco...I posted a while back that Englishtown might be closing. Asshats that had homes built nearby all the sudden realized how close they are to it.

Good luck with those modifications. But in order to race, you will need a license and a helmet and oay $12 admission fee. Racers are $12 and spectators are $8. We usually just throw the spectators in the trunk and then let them out later. Nopi Nationals is actually holding an event there this Saturday and Sunday and opening it up for street cars to race on. I'm thinking it's gonna be crowded so I'm not even gonna waste my time to wait in the line up.

And NSXNEXT...when and where did you here this? That's one of the better tracks in NJ! I would be pissed if they shut it down.
