At the outset, I will say that I have a love affair with Pocono, have been to 20 some races there, and miss the days when CART ran the place and you could walk down hot pits during practice practically alone.
That said, it needs to go. Its family owned and they can't afford to or won't upgrade the fence. The accident yesterday was fortunate in that the fence worked. It was a virtual replay of the Wickens incident, however, just with a luckier outcome. Had the smooth underside of the tub not slid along the fence, we'd be praying for Felix now.
Attendance has been an issue since the indycars came back. Its a bowl in the sun with only one grandstand along the front straight, and poor ingress/egress. There should be a race in the northeast, but unless ISC or someone can buy the place and reconfigure the fencing its over.
