Wait. I have the perfect solution. We have the Astrodome sitting down here rusting away and not being used for anything. Let's put in on a barge and send it up the intercoastal, through the river system and put it over the "burg for year round racing as referenced earlier in the thread. That way Texan fans can get some room in in the parking lot for home games and the Astrodome will finally find some use.

You guys don't realize how fortunate you are having such a incredible facility and promoter. Thank you Dave for taking this post with a grain of salt and having a sense of humor. You're a class act.

I use to make the 3 hr drive over a few times a year, but not anymore. Great facility and Dave does a fine job promoting, but it just isnt a sprint car track in my opinion. Racing just wasnt worth the drive over. I can see where drivers and car owners arent beating the doors down to race there. Unless you've been there, trying to keep a motor together for a summer or trying to come up with the huge amount of money when she goes, you will probably defend the new track layout. Truth is, it's gonna stretch a motor! If it were smaller, you would see twice the cars and the racing would be twice as good. Probably take the huge banking out of the corners would be a start.
