Keep in mind winged vs non wing cars. May not sound like it would make a difference but it does. It's sad to say it but the harsh reality is terre haute would have at most a 5% chance of being successful if they ran a full season weekly schedule. To many other options out there that are easier on equipment. They would have to pay considerably more to get cars away from the other tracks. People seem to factor out 2 huge things, geography and fans. When all the other tracks are a 1/2 mile or close then it'd be fine(not in Indiana) and I personally love terre haute but if I had to choose between watching a race on a 1/4 or a 1/2. I'd take the 1/4 75% of the time. I like to see a driver make a big difference, often times on a 1/2 the best car wins and a guy driving his butt off gets nothing to show for it.
