Default Re: KCIR to become park -- !@#$k

It'll be interesting to see how long it takes for this "park" to be developed! My guess is that the raceway property will set empty for a good long while.

I also wonder how much revenue the 200,000 fans that visited KCIR every year generated? How about the property taxes that won't be collected or the 20-plus jobs that were lost? I'd be looking at the City Council members financial contributions really closely in the run-up to this next election!

To paraphrase Dorothy, "Toto, I don't think we're racing at KCIR anymore!"
