I think we are quite a ways away from 50% capacity. This is every other seat empty. I know for one that I am not willing to spend a night at a track with only one seat empty between me and the next person for multiple hours at a time. I get pissed off when some one momentarily breaks my 6 foot barrier at the grocery store. How am I going to handle someone being 2 feet away for me hours at a time?

what are people willing to pay to cover the cost of only allowing a small group of people in the stands. since the economy is in good shape it shoudn't matter.

I personally wouldn’t mind paying $25-30 for a regular show to allow for space between fans. I-55 (Pevely, MO) is having a $5K to win late model show on 5/9 with a limit of 700 in the grandstands. Tickets at $30 sold out within a couple hours of going on sale.

I am surprised Indiana is not leading the way in opening at least the smaller race tracks.
Good luck with that social distancing policing. No one is making anyone go if they don't want to. Just open things already. The majority of people will police themselves.

Could use reserve seating. Only sell every 3rd or 4th seat. Stagger top to bottom. Sell concessions just like grocery store, put up plastic shield. Employees wear mask, seems way safer than just opening it up.
