V8...

In all due respect...I have to point this out...You are a knowledgable guy...but lets not put the hammer down yet here.

One of the race teams that was there pretty well explained the business end of what ASCT did at North Vernon..Race teams should view it as almost a rainout type situation. I say race teams should give them more chances...His first time out literally was wrecked...Wrecks happen in business and life.

You certainly won't see a wreck again like this again from me..When you do not own the track..you cannot just mandate changes because you lease it..These crap tracks have been operating for years like this.

That is my one HUGE dissapointment in the outdoor race promotion business...many tracks that are open to lease are just JUNK...You won't see me rent another that is even close to suspect structurally.
Gurley has good intentions..he doesn't control the tracks he leases.

Race teams..check this out if you have not already:

This is a damned tough business for ALL involved. Give em a break..

Best,
