Baltic International Speedway - Baltic, CT

I can't show an aerial view cause it is in a box in my basement! I believe it will reopen in a couple years when the grandson gets old enough to race.

HO-CAR rules!

The "Delaware Township, NJ" track,  is not in Delaware Township (renamed Cherry Hill) but in nearby Pennsauken.  This track started as a Greyhound track in the 1930's.  That being illegal, the track was quickly shut down.  It was later used to race quarter midgets.

The track is long gone, but the rather substantialy constructed grandstand building remains.  It is now an unpainted furniture store.

Here's another track to add to your New Jersey list:
Jaeger Velodrome, Sergeantsville, NJ
http://www.historicaerials.com/?poi=11692

This was an 1/8 mile steeply banked wood track that was reconstructed from the 6-day bike race track from Madison Square Garden.

Though not used for motor sports, a feature event for bicyle track racing at that time was the motor paced race.  This is where cyclists draft behind special motorcyles. This type of racing is still popular in Europe.

Track Bicyle racing was still popular at that time in urban areas, it is strange to see this track in the middle of very rural NJ.

Woodbridge, NJ  Woodbridge Speedway: 1931 view

http://www.historicaerials.com/?poi=12397

This is said to have been a board track.  After 1931 this was operated as a dirt track as in this 1940 view:

I've heard that the grandstand was used for the high school stadium, but the 1947 aerial shows that everything is gone.

ho-ho-kus speedway,      ho-ho-hus nj,    track was visable in 1931,    it closed in fact in 1938 after a accident that killed 2 spectators.....   somewhere between 1938 and 1953 it was turned into a housing development
