In recent years, most of the schedule / venue related questions which fans have asked, have started with the words "how about a return to ... "
-Surfers Paradise
-Phoenix (is it even near the same, since NASCAR brought in a quicker asphalt?)
-Road America
-Laguna Seca (not my track of choice, to be honest)
-Michigan (see Phoenix)
-Burke Lakefront Airport, Cleveland, Ohio
-Portland, Oregon
-Baltimore
-Watkins Glen
-Sparta, Kentucky
-the Mickyard
-Chicagoland
-etc.
Even back in the ChampCar Series, people called for a return to Vancouver.
Only during the tenure of Randy Bernard as CEO of IndyCar, such returns actually did happen: out of the 4 venues which returned, 3 turned out to be successful enough to remain on the schedule until today: Pocono, Milwaukee and Fontana.
If the current leadership of Miles/Walker is serious with returning to venues, they'd better prove it now.
