I am hoping big time. It would only be 60 miles away and on a good day 45 minutes away. Have been down to Mid America and would be at this one every chance possible

Not too far from me. It would be great to have another track in Minnesota. I filled out the questionnaire online. They had a heck of a time trying to get another track in before (northstar or whatever it was called) - opposition tends to blossom as these proposals get rolling

With Brainerd having difficulties I find it hard to imagine another track implemented. But it is a bit easier to get to versus Brainerd, perhaps that will help but if it does get approved I will wager Brainerd is history.

I don't have any idea one way or another about Brainerd - It was just purchased by a new investor last summer - they're planning on doing a lot of upgrades I thought? Would be a shame though - fastest track in North America.

I agree! Brainerd is "special" and hate to see it fall to the wayside. Tough biz this race track ownership! Let's hope BIR can revive as did Heartland Park did when the new owner came on board and dumped a million or 2 into it.
