Luckly the owners of GLD are committed and have even spent money redoing the track recently with Kurt Johnson doing the work, which is awesome.

Milan was also on the chopping block but has awesome new owners who are keeping it going.

Sad to hear. Support'em if you can. They are nearly impossible to bring back once their gone.

Arizona's biggest issue is building these tracks on Indian Reservation land. Leasing the land is always a sketchy deal. It's not that they don't have enough participation for events. Ultimately it's up to the Indian Reservation whether they want to keep it going or not and most of us know what that means.

In 2010 a casual friend, an MIT engineering grad who worked in John Deere tractor development, died when he lost control of his Viper and went sideways into a guard rail.
He had a small collection of Corvettes and hi perf motor cycles, with some amateur racing experience. - Bill W

I don't know. Kurt used to be the track manager at Summit/Norwalk, now he travels around and advices/fixes drag strips.
