Englishtown, NJ May 20, 2008 – For road racing enthusiasts, the long wait is finally over, and Old Bridge Township Raceway Park is ready to officially unveil their new 1.35 mile road course to the public. The road course is 1.35 miles, and a minimum of 40' wide, save for the 1,400 ft straightaway which measures 50' wide. Some highlights of the track include a 90 degree right turn, a 16 degree banked left turn, and a mini corkscrew.

To oversee operations at the road course, Raceway Park is proud to announce that they have partnered with longtime instructor, and former Nascar Craftsman Truck Series racer Chris Winter. Chris has been an instructor for various road racing series since he was 18 years old, and now has the privilege of being the instructor for new instructors with the Perfomance Drivers Association.

“I want to thank Michael Napp and Kevin Markland for the opportunity to provide New Jersey with a premiere road racing circuit. Raceway Park has been recognized as a world class drag racing facility for over 40 years, and with the addition of the new 1.35 mile road course, Raceway Park will continue to be one of the top multi-motorsport facilities in the nation,” remarked Chris Winter, the facility’s first Road Course Director.

The new road course is now available for track rentals, driving schools, and more. It makes for a great corporate event, track time for a car club, or simply a group of friends that want to hone their driving skills.
