Post new NJ track mentioned on Speedvision website

I apologize if this was discussed before, but it was news to me:

"The track record of VIR caught the attention of leaders in Millville, in New Jersey’s Cumberland County. Nearly 400 miles north of Danville, Millville has suffered from the same economic trends, and officials there are betting that a new race course can help revive their former industrial economy. The plans call for a new track on 700 acres next to the Cumberland County Airport. Thunderbolt Motorsports Park would be part county park, part playground for the rich, and lure the growing niche of the motorsports fans."

Al P.,

How far is Millville from say, Bergan County (like around Montvale)?

I'm thinking it would be great to have a quality road course less than a 2 hour ride away from my house (in Rockland county, NY - next to Bergan County).

about 150 miles, figure somewhere around 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Rockland or Orange would be nice, just need to find an investor.
