Don Jones to sell East Windsor Speedway … 2006 October 15
… in 1970!
Allan Brown of National Speedway Directory fame passed this along to the Trackchaser Yahoo! group…..
How about this headline in the September 23, 1970 issue of Area Auto.
EAST WINDSOR FINALE
Don Jones, owner and promoter of the East Windsor Speedway, has
informed us today that October 4th, with the ending of the Motorcycling
Jamboree show, will end racing of any form at East Windsor Speedway. The
property is being sold and will be used for business purposes, further
details to come later.
Obviously it took the Jones family another 30+ years to finally shut it down. I drove past it the other day and nothing is really happening on the property. I really do miss going to EWS. It is a shame that it isn’t still open. Oh well…
