Never thought I'd be happy when a track was decommissioned...

Quote:
An Illinois property developer, DiMucci Cos, plans to redevelop the Sportsman's Park site in Chicago [Mar 10], which contained both a horse racing track and a 1-mile motorsport oval, and was put up for sale in 2002. The Chicago Tribune newspaper reports that the development will include a convention centre, sports fields, a shopping centre and an hotel – but no motorsport facility.

How long was the race track there? It's not even eight years old is it? Didn't Ganassi have a hand in getting that track built? Did he put any money into it? I hate to see a track go, but that hasn't been one of the best venues for C^rt.

I'm not surprised by this. The race was poorly attended and marketed, and the racing was never that great, although it was the scene of da Matta's first win!

This is one lemon that the IRL isn't going to take over it seems.
