It's just a jab at them.....seems like a better name for it now as it reminds me of a fairgrounds that has monster trucks, off-road trucks, tractor pulls, etc. rather than racing. I doubt we'll ever see Eldora have a race like the Mopar Million again. Earl's focus was on promoting races no one else would try (King's Royal, HBO, Mopar Million, etc). I still go to Eldora a few times a year (like I will this Saturday), but not nearly as much as I used to. If you've ever been to the King's Royal, you would see "animals and rides"!!
