I don't see how this is built, and a race is NEVER run on it. I get it being a gift. But to me, that's a lot of effort for ONE appearance. I'm sure Tony would like to see a race run on it.

I don't think running 2 or 3 specials a year would oversaturate the market any more than it already is. Doug Boles/IMS hosted many dirt track promoters in the winter/spring so he obviously gets it. Grass roots racing is important to all racing. I'm sure something could be worked out to run and not step on other track's dates. A qualifying day, dirt track night race, would be cool. It wouldn't take much temporary lighting to light the dirt track. They generally don't have anything going after a qualifying day. I think some pretty cool things could be done a couple times a year. If they are serious about putting a real track down, right dirt, and right length (after they build the initial 3/16th), I think it could be a really cool deal. I think it could really enhance dirt racing, not take away from it if put together and used in the right way.
