I’m just curious why everyone is worried about the building of a temporary track... Chili Bowl? Mid-America Dome? both temporary venues... both tracks hosting several times the amount of cars we will see on opening night of Sprint week... and neither of these venues have the potential resources of IMS... This forum is full of fans complaining about The 500 abandoning short track drivers... Now when they are possibly offering a chance for our heros to make their name on the hallowed grounds, negativity abounds.

I, for one, hate to see Gas City lose its date. I have enjoyed kicking off the week there in the past. However, if this comes to be at IMS, we have an opportunity to showcase our passion to an audience never seen before!
