Even a sports team or league instead of racing would be better than nothing.
The last I heard it was owned by the city of Indianapolis and they were thinking of tearing it down. That was when Bart was mayor. It was like $5 - 8 million to renovate and less to tear down.
I think that it is on the historical list or something and that may be why they didn't immediately tear it down. I don't remember exactly.
It's been one of my dreams to bring it back as a track. It is an awesome place.
