Us Hoosiers have been fortunate enough to to have had Indy, NASCAR, F1 race at the track over the years and I’ve been lucky enough to seen it at one time or another. Hope the dirt track stays. It think it gives racers and fans a sort of an incentive to hopefully get to race there some day for those that will never make it to the top levels of Motorsports.
Suppose that depends how one defines the "top levels of motorsport". If marketing is the main criteria as opposed to competition then I agree.
