I think for this track to remain open, all 3 tracks have to be operating. Not sure when the last time the drag strip ran. The mile and a half track is a big piece of this puzzle. Heard a couple of months ago, this area was offered to build a new Bears Stadium. I don't think they were interested. Not sure if ISC owns all 3 tracks or not. A facility like that eats money when they sit empty.
As for the demo derbies, packing the place, chalk that up to hillbillification.
