Watched it develop on the evening news a few nights ago. While it sucks that some of the things in the building were lost. The facility was crap, the food was crap, and they really need some large, modern, glass building like the tower at Indy to replace it. ---

Meh, even Nascar is entertaining on the road courses, and if they wanna pump money into WGI, all the more power to them. ---

that is sad. but for the money the club makes they sure could build a better building. the glen is grasping for straws to keep the nascur running there. but maby with guys lyke juan pablo running who can actually turn right the road courses might get more airtime.
