If they really want to do this, they should look at reviving the Fairgrounds Grand Prix from the 60's. Room for temporary stands, good pit areas, some parking, bathrooms, etc are all there. The whole idea is dumber than dog doo, but if they are really interested in a racing venue and not just skimming as much money as possible into their own pockets, that would be the way to go. Ooops, I forgot, they might scare the horses. Never mind.

Rarely has it been this easy to spot impending failure from this far away.

Then again, maybe people will vote all new on the city council and those people will say no.
I am also a thinking let them have their damn Grand Prix. And when they lose their ass and go bankrupt they will have nobody to blame but themselves.
And if rumor is true about Tinker, they will be even more in the hole and ole Mickey will be hung and feathered.

There is a way to not only watch these individuals go down in flames (it would take 5 years at the most )
But also a way to put our people back on top. ---power your cars with natural gas! Get in with their lobbyists, and..............
