The International Hot Rod Association is pleased to welcome Quaker City Motorsports Park back to the IHRA as the latest track to join the rapidly growing IHRA family.
With the recent purchase of Quaker City Motorsports Park finally complete, Norm Fox and his family plan to perform a number of facility upgrades and are looking forward to an exciting future with the IHRA.
"It's great to have Quaker back in the IHRA fold," said Division Director Jon O'Neal . "With the long standing history of the facility with the IHRA, it seemed like Quaker coming back with a new owner was only natural."
The facility, located in Salem, Ohio, is in for quite an overhaul with plans from Fox to upgrade the timing system, track surface and pit area. The first step was a name change from Quaker City Raceway to Quaker City Motorsports Park to foreshadow the upcoming changes to incorporate additional motorsports elements to the grounds in the future.
Fox, along with his family, operate Fox Auto Salvage & Parts Inc and are excited to dive head first into keeping drag racing alive at the long standing facility. Knowing the challenge ahead, Fox is excited to see the outpouring of support from local racers and fans to help keep drag racing alive at Quaker City.
"Even before the deal was done, I was swarmed by people," Fox said. "It's great to see so many people excited that the track will stay alive and have a fresh start."
