The problem will banking would be the cars will send dirt way up into the air and into the stands. As far as Kyle Larson thinking I am an internet jerk. I am sure he got paid to be there last night. Also he is a big time "outlaw kart" fan. I think he may not be happy with the really bad show they but on last night. Can some one explain the roll cages on the karts. The look like they are all about to fall off. Would not think the dumb over size wings would do anything for the kart other then try to make it look like a sprint car.
It has been more then a few years, but they put on a few races indoor at the Pontiac Silverdome. First year was a dirt race. If they could get that place clean after the race was over, I am sure they can hose down the little barn for the round ballers to play the next time they need it. What I would like to know is how short of a time did they have to get the place clean out and ready for the next event.
I would think that if Mr lucas wanted a indoor race at a building that has his name on it. He could get that done
Here is the 1983 Silverdome midget race
