As someone else has stated, it really depends on the track. If the track has a good history of running an efficient program, then starting a little later in better. However, there is deffinitely a limit on how much later you could push it. 8:00 would be the latest, and even that is going to start having a negative impact on your gate.
Everyone in life has different factors that motivate them. For me, I have to be at work every day at 6:30am. Thus, I am getting up everyday around 5:15am. My 5 year old wakes up every day of the week around 6:15am so even on the weekends my family is up early. Thus, for me it is very hard to stay up to the wee hours of the morning. Thus, late nights would not work well for me.
The other thing that you have to look at is when do the familys with young children leave the track. I know my kids are not old enough to last the entire night, so they stay home, but many people bring thier kids to the track. These people start heading for the car around 8:30 - 9:00. If you don't start till 8:30, you will never get them there.
The idea may be better than what we have espically if it saves the dreaded farming session in the middle of the night, but it is not a cure-all solution.
