IHRA national event in Florida? - Page 2

After doing a comparison of PBIR pit space to other IHRA facilities it's not as good as I originally thought.

The yellow area is immediate wasted space that could still be paved for additional pit parking. The red area was a bad decision when planning the road course and additional land that could have been converted. The barrier wall surrounding the road course carousel turn should be removable for hosting large drag race events, gaining additional pit space. I love having this dragstrip within 30 minutes to home. But it's depressing to see bad decisions continue, some similar to the old management, and eroding hope of ever hosting major events. Just my opinion.

I guess we'll have to see what happens.
