I'm donating a couple days labor to the Speedway Motorcycle promotor here on the east coast. He actually owns three tracks, IMS in California, Champion Speedway in NY and he's in the process of building a new track just two miles from Watkins Glen International, which he has huge plans for, it will be a motorsports park more then just a raceway. Now speedway draws very few riders and most are younger although the best riders are usually older. Reason is its just crazy and you have no protection. I have had nights thru no fault of my own where I've crashed a couple, three times and still won the main event. Tracks are 1/8 mile and a good four lap race takes less then sixty seconds. As far as motorcycles go it can actually be compared to nonwinged sprints, and I do all the time. Its the same as a sprinter in the sense that you better be committed to going sideways or else. Anyhow, I keep telling Mr. Bosignore the way to make some money is to have a car track. There is one nonwinged track here it's hamlin pa, they run 600's. Theres sometimes 100 cars in the pits and they all spend good money, as compared to 25 speedwaybikes on a tight budget. When I mention cars vile builds up in him, but he does like and understand that a nice banked 1/5 mile just 2 miles from watkins glen would likely draw some cars. So who knows we have a meeting in a couple hours and I'm pushing that car track for sometime down the road. Too bad he couldnt just build the bigger track now and run both cars and bikes, but then your talking air walls (expensive) for the bikes cause the wall would have to be built too sturdy for the bikes to contain the cars. Ideally speedwaybike walls are built so they give slightly when impacted by bike and rider.
