Wish the current fair board was more excited about promoting a great series and preserving the history too! I realize Bob and even A.J. Foyt had to work out lease deals to use the track. I remember watching The King beat Sammy on a last lap pass at the WoO show in 1991. The stands were nearly full too!

Thanks for understanding what I meant. Since they no longer have concerts in the grandstand I am afraid its days are numbered. I love that track. I think the track may survive as a horse training facility, but it the grandstand goes racing will go with it. I wrote 2 of my state reps about it. I tried to explain the importance of it. They would rather tell how much money they saved by tearing it down. Sadly that would also impress a lot of Hoosiers.
