They only do 60' worth of prep for Friday test and tune for christ sake. The track is what it has become due to the way it has been run for the last 10 or so years. I first went there about 16 years ago on basically every Wednesday and Friday to race. It was ALWAYS busy. A slow day back then was busier than the busy days now. The economy going to shit around '08 didn't help matters either. A lot of people had to sell off their toys to pay the bills and it seems that a lot of those people haven't really made it back to racing.
A fresh face, so to speak, could really do wonders for the track and it's fading reputation. I still enjoy going to the track, but almost every time I go on a Friday they close 30 minutes early because they have to get up early on Saturday for an event. Those are workers words not mine. What kind of bullshit is that? When it's 85 during the day, the last hour or so is usually the best air to run in and they shut it down early!! Really?!
I don't know how to properly run a track, but I do know what they tend to do isnt in the best interest of keeping the track busy and open.
