So nobody should say anything? Meanwhile, a poor product drives fans away from the sport. I’m sure it will be the fault of social media if the place closes, not poor management.

I can't speak for the racing which I thought was decent and time management was not very good; but the food prices are not the fault of promoter Sherri Heckenast. Blame those prices on the Drag Strip who owns the property. By the way that place won't close any time soon she makes a killing on the team demo derby, redneck bash, even the local police get involved and other stuff she has there as they routinely sell out 10,000+ fans.

Tracks need to go back to selling pop/cola, pop corn and run the races.

If shows run well past midnight you cannot draw new fans. Parents won't bring there kids and eventually every race track closes as we die off. Parents will likely stop coming as well because it's hard to find a baby sitter for pretty much an all night thing.
