Mark - I'm certainly not an authority on this subject but I'd be surprised based on what I am hearing on the construction/real estate side.

There are so many very large pieces of farm land that was slated to be developed into residential subdivisions in that general area that has been going back to the banks and could be bought for 20-30% of what it sold for - I would think that these pieces would be bought and developed prior to the drag strip.

I'd be curious to hear more about what the plans are - maybe something completely different? Given the Chicagoland Speedway across the road and the dirt track on the same general parcel what else would go there?
