I think it's sad what tony stewart is doing to eldora speedway. That track was originally built for sprint cars, late models, usac, and dirt racing and he has all this money and has basically changed that track to fit the nascar drivers that come and run the late models. He has put in seats all the way around the track and area that use to be parking for cars and motor homes and, now he is basically trying to turn Eldora into another Bristol speedway. To me it's one step away from paving the track. He cancelled the All-Stars (they have no races scheduled this summer) and he has also put suites up, everything he is doing for this track is all about about the nascar drivers and the races that they take part in and anymore the dirt racing is pushed to the side and only done when the NASCAR drivers won't be around. Tony does everything at the track anymore all for the ONE race that the NASCAR drivers participate in. When Earl owned this track he did everything for the dirt racing and since tony has brought nascar racing in he is more focused on what they bring in. I think someone should buy this track and put it back to dirt racing instead of just worrying about what will bring in the biggest payout. I have been attending this track since 1981 and it is changing more and more every year and soon it he will just straight turn it into a NASCAR track if he doesn't sell it to someone that loves the dirt instead of how much money the track can bring them or, those drivers who only want something to do on their day off!!
