WALL STADIUM TO
HOST RACE CAR SWAP MEET
ON MARCH 6 |
|
 Auto
racing teams from all forms of the sport as well as automotive enthusiasts
in general will have the opportunity to either sell their parts and
equipment or purchase needed items for the new season when a Race
Car/Automotive Parts Swap Meet is presented in the paved pit area at Wall
Stadium on Saturday, March 6. The event, which will run between 7:30 a.m.
and 2:00 p.m., has a heavy rain or snow date of the following Saturday,
March 13.
The Swap Meet, which will feature everything from the smallest part to
complete cars, is being organized by the father/son team of Earl and Doug
Megill, who are well known in New Jersey for their successful events. A $15
fee is required by all vendors, while buyers and browsers will be admitted
free of charge. Earl and Doug Megill can be reached at 732-681-3776 or at
cdr30@optonline.net.
“It feels great to have our swap meets at Wall Speedway again,” Earl Megill
said. “In recent years we have had real good interest in our swap meets not
only from the dirt and pavement oval racers, but also from the drag racers,
street rodders and muscle car enthusiasts.
“We just want everyone to be sure that they know they are welcome. If it is
automotive related, we welcome it at our swap meet!”
For Wall Stadium auto racers and their fans tentative plans call for early
season paid practice sessions on March 13, 20 and 27 before season opening
races are presented on Saturday, April 3. Several racing events will then be
presented on selected Saturday nights during the summer months before the
annual Turkey Derby caps off the season. Promoter Jim Morton also mentioned
that news will be coming out soon about the return of the “Sunday Series” on
the “inner oval” featuring go-karts and other small car divisions.
In addition to the auto racing events, Morton is currently working with
various promoters in an effort to bring other “family friendly” shows and
events to the Wall Township stadium this season. Details will be announced
soon. Wall Stadium is located on Route 34 in Wall Township , N.J. , just one
mile north of Garden State Parkway exit 98 and Interstate 195 exit 35B. The
speedway hotline number 732-681-6400, will be operational when the office
opens on February 28. More information is available at
