Long recognized as the most versatile touring sanction in motorsports, the ARCA RE/MAX Series has left very little doubt for 2008.

Among the standard combination of superspeedways, short tracks and dirt tracks, the series, headed toward its 56th consecutive season, is going road course racing with an event at the brand new 2.3-mile New Jersey Motorsports Park (NJMP) road course in Millville, New Jersey on September 28th, 2008. Grand-Am will be racing there in 2008 as well.

“We started this project (NJMP) in 1992 with the dream of bringing world class racing to New Jersey,” said NJMP Founder Green Flag Committee Don Fauerbach (lower right), who fielded a two-car ARCA RE/MAX Series team in 2000 with drivers’ Mark Gibson and Joe Cooksey. “It’s so gratifying to see it finally come to fruition. The paving is going down November 19th.

“I’ve been a proud member of the ARCA family for years and I can’t tell you how thrilling this will be to welcome the ARCA family back to my hometown of Millville. I’ve been on cloud nine ever since we sealed the deal.”

The course features 14 challenging turns and a half-mile straightway surrounded by 40 acres of full service paddock space. Amenities on this circuit will include concession buildings, event garages, 20 VIP Suites, banquet rooms, a covered false grid and a three story timing tower with media center and VIP facilities.

“The ARCA RE/MAX Series has long been recognized for the diversity in the types of venues on the schedule,” said ARCA President Ron Drager. “Returning a road course to the ‘08 lineup, in the form of New Jersey Motorsports Park, truly rounds out the full range of venues to include paved short tracks, superspeedways, concrete surface intermediate tracks and the mile dirt state fairgrounds ovals.”
