Any banker that would provide a line of credit for the amount that Jack wants for that property for the intention of continuing it as a racetrack would be fired immediately.

What's happing with the save Gas City. You ask if some could donate to this cause which I did and now have not heard anything about what progress in your quest. Not a way to be transparent in my view.

And Im glad, I don't think the reason racing stopped there is because nobody wanted too Not sure if it was a fair board issue or what. But I thought that Abreu's had put 3mill into the track for lighting and fencing before the racing stopped.

Anyway, Glad to see it back. Stoga's a legend.

I stopped at Gas City last September and looked around. If you include the purchase price, it would probably take $7Million to get it up and going for that first year. I don't see any way a person could get any sort of return on investment. I have also heard it is now for sale in several pieces. I would say it is done. The time to save Gas City was when everyone was boycotting the place. Hey, they got what they wanted.

When Larry B was running it there were a few guys bad mouthing him and said they wasn't going to support Gas City. There were some things that I didn't like what Larry was doing but I still went there. Now I hope those ones that boycotted the track are happy.
