congratulations, you certainly have a beautiful grounds/ i've heard you're making the track bigger/ you certainly have plenty of room to expand it. a high banked 3/8's or 1/3rd would give the racers room to work and would give me me incentive to make the trek

Please don't make the track any bigger, change the banking or make it wider, but leave it at a 1/4mile. Seems like the track has gotten narrower over the years.

I'd like to see new grandstands before anything was done to the racing surface

Because every race track can use improvements or updates after many years.

I agree the grandstands need major improvements, was glad to see the bleachers on the hill replaced last year. But there's no need to change the size of the track, always loved to see the cars running up top, wide open. Seems the last few years the track has narrowed quite a lot, would like to see it widened some, but not lengthened any.

Change whatever you want outside of the catch fence. I'd really hate it for another TRUE Indiana bullring disappear.
