New Track Planned for Central New York

The first phase of construction for Central New York Raceway Park in Central Square, N.Y., is set to begin this spring. The 140-acre site, located 20 minutes from downtown Syracuse, is presently being cleared in anticipation of the groundbreaking for a facility that will include a two-mile road course, a drag strip and a synthetic-surface half-mile dirt track. The facility is being constructed by Donnelly Partners LLC, which is led by Glenn Donnelly and Carl Myers, CEO of Sweeteners Plus. Donnelly has been planning the new track for the past two years with the intention of creating “an innovative, entertaining, and profitable multi-use facility.”

In addition to Donnelly and Myers, the investor group includes Robert Lutz, Todd Town, Tony Komuda Jr., Peter Mack, Derek Tarolli and Greg Kidd. “Our investors are our biggest assets,” says Donnelly. “They are all highly involved, tremendously talented and very successful business people committed to make CNYRP a financial success.”
