It’s looking like no racing until 2019 at the earliest.
TMD have laid their track
Old buildings have been removed
New toilet blocks have been delivered
Half the total money required has been raised ( donated )
Waiting on further updates

Pretty much as Rebel says,,,theres stuff going on in the background that Pennine Drag Racing Club (PDRC}are not involved in.
Pennine Promotions/York raceway is the company doing the negotiations with the land owner and TMD.
Unfortunatly,this as been a very slow,so I doubt any racing for 2018.
Ive put my money in the Pot,as have many others to Save York,and also I support Rockingham,because the last thing Racers & spectators need is Santa Pod having the Monopoly,Prices have already gone up.
A Racer as already been barred from the Pod because of his involvement with Rockingham,you work it out?
