A Korean Company started building a lithium Ion battery plant in Commerce. They were expected to hire 2600 people. There is not enough housing in that area of mostly farmland. A few people around the track sold property to developers for apartment complexes. Now the noise is going to be an issue.
Commerce was always last place to invest for the NHRA. They haven't updated anything since 2000. It's one of the only 1/4 mile tracks left near me. I usually test there before I haul to a NMCA event. Shame now the closest tracks are over 2hrs away.
