How many folks are they potentially losing to the World if they run Thurs instead of Wed? Probably not a lot, but you can bet a a few.. and it's all revenue. I just think this is more about hype and revenue, and hoping the locals will stay for the weekend also.
But they'll be more folks at the World for 3 days than Indy for the 3 big track days.

I say this event is about the locals and to draw attention to the Track... Win Win for the track!
