PPIR was purchased by NASCAR and shut down as a full fledged race track. The track can only have regional events there and no more than (I think) 7,500 tickets sold for any one event. That was actually a better deal that NASCAR gave Nazareth as they dug trenches across the track, removed grandstands form Nazareth to be put at Watkins Glen and have left the track to fall into disrepair.
Just here to read threads, enjoy racing and no drama.
