New Jersey Motorsports Park
New Jersey Motorsports Park is located on 500 acres immediately adjacent to the Millville Airport, an airport that was dedicated in 1941 as America's First Defense Airport which played a key role in the country's World War II military efforts.The Millville Army Air Field opened as a gunnery school for fighter pilots for the Republic P-47 "Thunderbolt" in 1941. During its four-year existence, about 1,500 pilots received advanced P-47 Thunderbolt fighter traininghere.New Jersey Motorsports Park embraced this rich history by naming its marquee 2.25-mile racetrack "Thunderbolt Raceway." The 1.9-mile road course - Lightning Raceway - is named after the P-38 Lightning, a WWII fighter aircraft.New Jersey Motorsports Park also carried the historical WWII theme by naming its trackside condominiums "The Villas at Breighton." Breighton was the name of an allied airfield in Great Britain, where many of the Millville trained P-47 pilots served during WWII.Other ties to the WWII theme include the English Tudor design of the clubhouse, the Officers Club Q-Hangar design that contains Cumberland County's largest banquet facility and the Timing Tower that resembles a WWII air traffic control tower. Upon visiting New Jersey Motorsports Park, you will also notice that NJMP safety and security vehicles are based on WWII MP Jeeps.While building the various structures at New Jersey Motorsports Park, many WWII artifacts were found and collected for display at the Millville Army Air Field Museum, located on the opposite side of the Millville Airport. The Bore Site range, located just outside Thunderbolt Raceway Paddock was used by Thunderbolt pilots during training as a range to calibrate their machine guns.Today, a P-47 Thunderbolt- No Guts, No Glory aircraft is based out of Millville Airport. It is one of only nine in the world that still flies. Keep an eye on the sky when visiting NJMP - you may just see one pass by overhead.

During its four-year existence, about 1,500 pilots received advanced P-47 Thunderbolt fighter traininghere.New Jersey Motorsports Park embraced this rich history by naming its marquee 2.25-mile racetrack "Thunderbolt Raceway." The 1.9-mile road course - Lightning Raceway - is named after the P-38 Lightning, a WWII fighter aircraft.New Jersey Motorsports Park also carried the historical WWII theme by naming its trackside condominiums "The Villas at Breighton." Breighton was the name of an allied airfield in Great Britain, where many of the Millville trained P-47 pilots served during WWII.Other ties to the WWII theme include the English Tudor design of the clubhouse, the Officers Club Q-Hangar design that contains Cumberland County's largest banquet facility and the Timing Tower that resembles a WWII air traffic control tower. Upon visiting New Jersey Motorsports Park, you will also notice that NJMP safety and security vehicles are based on WWII MP Jeeps.While building the various structures at New Jersey Motorsports Park, many WWII artifacts were found and collected for display at the Millville Army Air Field Museum, located on the opposite side of the Millville Airport. The Bore Site range, located just outside Thunderbolt Raceway Paddock was used by Thunderbolt pilots during training as a range to calibrate their machine guns.Today, a P-47 Thunderbolt- No Guts, No Glory aircraft is based out of Millville Airport. It is one of only nine in the world that still flies.

During its four-year existence, about 1,500 pilots received advanced P-47 Thunderbolt fighter traininghere.New Jersey Motorsports Park embraced this rich history by naming its marquee 2.25-mile racetrack "Thunderbolt Raceway." The 1.9-mile road course - Lightning Raceway - is named after the P-38 Lightning, a WWII fighter aircraft.New Jersey Motorsports Park also carried the historical WWII theme by naming its trackside condominiums "The Villas at Breighton." Breighton was the name of an allied airfield in Great Britain, where many of the Millville trained P-47 pilots served during WWII.Other ties to the WWII theme include the English Tudor design of the clubhouse, the Officers Club Q-Hangar design that contains Cumberland County's largest banquet facility and the Timing Tower that resembles a WWII air traffic control tower. Upon visiting New Jersey Motorsports Park, you will also notice that NJMP safety and security vehicles are based on WWII MP Jeeps.While building the various structures at New Jersey Motorsports Park, many WWII artifacts were found and collected for display at the Millville Army Air Field Museum, located on the opposite side of the Millville Airport. The Bore Site range, located just outside Thunderbolt Raceway Paddock was used by Thunderbolt pilots during training as a range to calibrate their machine guns.Today, a P-47 Thunderbolt- No Guts, No Glory aircraft is based out of Millville Airport. It is one of only nine in the world that still flies. Keep an eye on the sky when visiting NJMP - you may just see one pass by overhead.</p> </div> <div class="reportthis" style="margin-bottom: 20px;"> <form method="post" action="/millville-nj/report/place/new-jersey-motorsports-park-millville-nj.html"> <button type="submit" class="btn btnregister pull-right" style="margin-bottom: 10px;">Flag This Place</button> </form> </div> <div class="report_button_message">Please use "Flag This Place" to alert us about content that is inappropriate or needs immediate attention.

The 1.9-mile road course - Lightning Raceway - is named after the P-38 Lightning, a WWII fighter aircraft.New Jersey Motorsports Park also carried the historical WWII theme by naming its trackside condominiums "The Villas at Breighton." Breighton was the name of an allied airfield in Great Britain, where many of the Millville trained P-47 pilots served during WWII.Other ties to the WWII theme include the English Tudor design of the clubhouse, the Officers Club Q-Hangar design that contains Cumberland County's largest banquet facility and the Timing Tower that resembles a WWII air traffic control tower. Upon visiting New Jersey Motorsports Park, you will also notice that NJMP safety and security vehicles are based on WWII MP Jeeps.While building the various structures at New Jersey Motorsports Park, many WWII artifacts were found and collected for display at the Millville Army Air Field Museum, located on the opposite side of the Millville Airport. The Bore Site range, located just outside Thunderbolt Raceway Paddock was used by Thunderbolt pilots during training as a range to calibrate their machine guns.Today, a P-47 Thunderbolt- No Guts, No Glory aircraft is based out of Millville Airport. It is one of only nine in the world that still flies. Keep an eye on the sky when visiting NJMP - you may just see one pass by overhead.</p> </div> <div class="reportthis" style="margin-bottom: 20px;"> <form method="post" action="/millville-nj/report/place/new-jersey-motorsports-park-millville-nj.html"> <button type="submit" class="btn btnregister pull-right" style="margin-bottom: 10px;">Flag This Place</button> </form> </div> <div class="report_button_message">Please use "Flag This Place" to alert us about content that is inappropriate or needs immediate attention.

During its four-year existence, about 1,500 pilots received advanced P-47 Thunderbolt fighter traininghere.New Jersey Motorsports Park embraced this rich history by naming its marquee 2.25-mile racetrack "Thunderbolt Raceway." The 1.9-mile road course - Lightning Raceway - is named after the P-38 Lightning, a WWII fighter aircraft.New Jersey Motorsports Park also carried the historical WWII theme by naming its trackside condominiums "The Villas at Breighton." Breighton was the name of an allied airfield in Great Britain, where many of the Millville trained P-47 pilots served during WWII.Other ties to the WWII theme include the English Tudor design of the clubhouse, the Officers Club Q-Hangar design that contains Cumberland County's largest banquet facility and the Timing Tower that resembles a WWII air traffic control tower. Upon visiting New Jersey Motorsports Park, you will also notice that NJMP safety and security vehicles are based on WWII MP Jeeps.While building the various structures at New Jersey Motorsports Park, many WWII artifacts were found and collected for display at the Millville Army Air Field Museum, located on the opposite side of the Millville Airport. The Bore Site range, located just outside Thunderbolt Raceway Paddock was used by Thunderbolt pilots during training as a range to calibrate their machine guns.Today, a P-47 Thunderbolt- No Guts, No Glory aircraft is based out of Millville Airport. It is one of only nine in the world that still flies.

During its four-year existence, about 1,500 pilots received advanced P-47 Thunderbolt fighter traininghere.New Jersey Motorsports Park embraced this rich history by naming its marquee 2.25-mile racetrack "Thunderbolt Raceway." The 1.9-mile road course - Lightning Raceway - is named after the P-38 Lightning, a WWII fighter aircraft.New Jersey Motorsports Park also carried the historical WWII theme by naming its trackside condominiums "The Villas at Breighton." Breighton was the name of an allied airfield in Great Britain, where many of the Millville trained P-47 pilots served during WWII.Other ties to the WWII theme include the English Tudor design of the clubhouse, the Officers Club Q-Hangar design that contains Cumberland County's largest banquet facility and the Timing Tower that resembles a WWII air traffic control tower. Upon visiting New Jersey Motorsports Park, you will also notice that NJMP safety and security vehicles are based on WWII MP Jeeps.While building the various structures at New Jersey Motorsports Park, many WWII artifacts were found and collected for display at the Millville Army Air Field Museum, located on the opposite side of the Millville Airport. The Bore Site range, located just outside Thunderbolt Raceway Paddock was used by Thunderbolt pilots during training as a range to calibrate their machine guns.Today, a P-47 Thunderbolt- No Guts, No Glory aircraft is based out of Millville Airport. It is one of only nine in the world that still flies.

During its four-year existence, about 1,500 pilots received advanced P-47 Thunderbolt fighter traininghere.New Jersey Motorsports Park embraced this rich history by naming its marquee 2.25-mile racetrack "Thunderbolt Raceway." The 1.9-mile road course - Lightning Raceway - is named after the P-38 Lightning, a WWII fighter aircraft.New Jersey Motorsports Park also carried the historical WWII theme by naming its trackside condominiums "The Villas at Breighton." Breighton was the name of an allied airfield in Great Britain, where many of the Millville trained P-47 pilots served during WWII.Other ties to the WWII theme include the English Tudor design of the clubhouse, the Officers Club Q-Hangar design that contains Cumberland County's largest banquet facility and the Timing Tower that resembles a WWII air traffic control tower. Upon visiting New Jersey Motorsports Park, you will also notice that NJMP safety and security vehicles are based on WWII MP Jeeps.While building the various structures at New Jersey Motorsports Park, many WWII artifacts were found and collected for display at the Millville Army Air Field Museum, located on the opposite side of the Millville Airport. The Bore Site range, located just outside Thunderbolt Raceway Paddock was used by Thunderbolt pilots during training as a range to calibrate their machine guns.Today, a P-47 Thunderbolt- No Guts, No Glory aircraft is based out of Millville Airport. It is one of only nine in the world that still flies.
