Texas ........... sheesh .............. a long line of obscenities threatens to explode out of my keyboard. Highbanker crap = stupidity personified and magnified. The lesson hasn't been learned and never will. Looks like management and some fans will never, EVER get it .

@ Linda - Bah HUMBUG!! I enjoy my role as Gloomy Gus!!
@ RR - I don't know that there are 7-8 flat to moderate ovals out there, unless we go to the Kraut Ring and Rockingham, England.
@ RR - I can't remember how well those 2 tracks drew for attendance. Maybe our resident civil engineer/motorsports facility designer could dredge up some attendance numbers on the Kraut Ring and the Limey Ring *hint hint .......*

Jap Ring! Or Nip Ring! (not to be confused with Nipple Ring .......)
Damn, but with the way these we're throwing around these ethnic slang names, I'm some kind of glad there isn't an oval in Kenya!!
