    20,000 PLUS in June?

    What does everyone think the odds are that a racetrack will be allowed to host 20,000 plus people this June?

      It might be possible but location may play a big factor I certainly hope this sh!t has evaporated by then

        I just hope I can go to a race in June if I’m not prison, rehab or a psych ward by then

            I'm just hoping for August/September. I don't see anything happening before then.

              My anxiety is through the roof with no racing, and no sports.

                If we do get to a racing season, every track will be scheduling over each other. I will not attend any rescheduled races that impede upon a scheduled event. I don't think it is right what they are doing with the Slocum 50. All these rescheduled events are gonna do, is splinter the fields and send drivers out in search of a race to cherry pick.

                  Constitutionally these governors can't stop people from assembling. They're acting like they can now, but people will only take having their Constitutional rights taken away for so long. I would say before June these unconstitutional shut downs will have to end to avoid serious civil unrest.

                    As long as the races aren't too close to each other in the regions that they split up fans this isn't a bad thing. More opportunities for race teams to make some $$$.

                      Only Eldora and Knoxville can even hold 20k+ people, and I doubt the Dream actually gets 20k fans, even on a year with no pandemic. I doubt you see 20+ people at a dirt track until the Knoxville 410 Nationals in August.

                        Eldoras seating capacity is listed as 30,000 i though i read before that they had like 23,000 actual seats and 10,000 plus in general admission areas. I don't know about the dream but i can tell you the world was standing room only

                          MLRA is already scheduled to be at 34 the night the Slocum was rescheduled.

                            I'd add Charlotte to that list as well.

                              Wikipedia says 14k at Charlotte.
