hey indycool, when you set out twenty years ago to destroy open wheel racing, did you think you would be so successful?

One of the best oval tracks gone. I'm not big oval fan but have enjoyed racing here for many years. I will miss this track that produced good oval racing every year. Least we have china. Idiots!
Keep it fast, keep it real!!!

It is unfortunate, but I do not think the track is set up for success with it's current state ownership.

I'll miss Milwaukee too, but... another way to think about this is that now the market in Wisconsin has no race... and Road America is sitting there all lonely and unused...

While the spilt did not help, I think Milwaukee's problems are more local/track/promoter oriented than the CART/IRL split and it is a bit unfair to place this particular failure on TG - just sayin'.... :
