There are a couple on here more worried about their pseudo celebrity than any track


Totally agree with you BK..

It's going to take someone who realizes that there will be and has the financial ability to withstand losses for a year or so. People don't trust the place because through changing nights, poor promotion, promoters purposely running it in the ground to help their own track, and some other things people have just gotten used to going other places. You throw in 13+% unemployment in the surrounding area and location compared to other tracks in the area, it's going to be a tough road. It can and has been done before, but you have to sale yourself, your track, and your plan 24/7. That has not happened for the better part of a decade now.

What the complete solution is I'm not sure. I'm sure it's not writing letters and posts contributing to the negative stigma that already surrounds the place.

B_K hit the nail on the head. Its gonna take someone with a lot of JACK to put NGS back on the map (like it was 3-4 years ago). And I sure wish someone would do it. Next to maybe Rome, NGS has some of the best racing in Georgia, or maybe even the southeastern U.S. It might not have the nicest concessions, bathrooms, etc, but who goes to the races for all that anyway. Put me on a good race, and I will stand up all night if I have to. Just my .02!!!
