Well, that "lipstick on a pig" approach is pretty popular right now, but these guys need to realize that there are some pretty serious issues with THAT. They need to look at the situation as it is, not as they'd like it to be. I am really happy that they have stepped up and reopened the track and I really want them to be successful. I hope to see more and more events and hope it is profitable so they can keep it operating. Attendance was pretty good this year, including lots of comps, but to maintain that level and even increase attendance, they're going to have to show some improvement next year. I, and several other people I talked to were willing to give them '08, but expect them to take action on the glitches. It's true that the dirt is worn out and probably needs replaced. Very expensive. Maybe it can be saved for a while but it will take some work and technology. The last event was ugly from an operational perspective. It just seemed that nothing except the actual racing went right. THATs fault, USACs fault, Mods fault. Doesn't matter. Need to take the criticism seriously and fix it. You don't have to be perfect. Race fans are pretty forgiving if you face facts and work to improve, but they aren't easily fooled. THAT has faced difficulty a number of times before. I'm rooting for them.
