GIR shutting down

[SLUF]

So much for the east versus west divisional debate!

Hopefully this is temporary but I doubt it.

Too bad. I ran some laps there when the One Lap went through in '97...

NASCAR "wins" again.

wow, that is too bad. gateway is where my uncle raced his datsun 2000 (more like 2300) back in the day (80's). sad

[Speed Raycer]

^^^ THAT Gateway has been gone since the mid 90's.

There is talk of a new VIR inspired road course in the area. We're not holding our collective breath, but maybe GIR going away will boost interest in the new track...

[Gary L]

Damn it man - that was the only track besides Hallett at which I've ever beaten Albin in a fair fight! :)

OTOH, I won't miss the 400+ mile tow.

NASCAR "wins" again.

That about sums it up. :(
