Still is!! The track is still open and going great. It's one of only a few venues where this kind of division can run. That car could still be legal if it acn be adapted to the spec carburetor now required!
The rules and info are online at:

For years, a local guy campaigned what I think was an 81 242GLT, converted to a Canadian Solex-carb setup. The Mustang people (the locals) tend to try to put any unusual cars into the wall- by the end of it's career it was significantly narrower! I've seen a wide variety of cars campaigned in the X-Cars class, formerly called "Mini-Stocks"- people have run Rabbits/Golfs, Saab 99s, Toyota Corolla and Celicas, Mustangs, Chevy Monzas, Cavaliers and even a Chevette.

If you're ever in Eastern Connecticut, stop in on a Saturday night for regular racing or a Wednesday for X-cars and Demo Derbys. Ever seen a School Bus Demolition Derby? You haven't lived....
