I think it would be a nightmare for any promoter to run THAT. Mid week races mostly, and if it is a weekend race, lots of tracks around that run every week to fight for cars with. When Indiana went to daylight savings time, that threw a monkey wrench into things also. Now you are fighting the sun all evening, and if you try to wait later until the sun goes down, you are fighting a curfew. Tough to run into turn 3 staring into the sun I’m sure. Lots of racers stay away from the 1/2 mile because they don’t want to use up their equipment, or they don’t have the cubic dollars to run with those who do. The concrete block wall I’m sure scares some racers off. If the real estate market didn’t crash like it did after 9/11, I’d be willing to bet the Action Track wouldn’t exist today. I love the action track, when it’s racy, there’s no other place like it. Silver Crown are awesome there. I am very thankful that Bob Sargent and crew stick there necks out to keep the Action Track running, and applaud their efforts every race. It cannot be easy. There are several local businesses like Scott’s Custom Colors who support the Action Track. I live in Terre Haute and sadly it doesn’t seem to draw much crowd from Terre Haute. I do know a lot of people who drive hours to watch racing at the Action Track though. To me it is kind of like Duquoin, Springfield, or even IMS, you can just feel the history of the place when you look at it. It is a diamond in the rough, and I think it’s here to stay for the foreseeable future as long as good promoters like Sargent are willing to put the time and money into running the place.
