So......is there any reason to believe we'll have a track this year? Anybody been out to the salt to see what it looks like? Is it mud or is it white? What was the off season like? Temps and rainfall compared to other years (good or bad)? Last year's salt was marginal at best are we expecting the same, better or worse this year? We've got 5 months to go and lots can happen but if it is a mud pit now there won't be any reason to load the trailers....
We had all the hype and momentum from years of not racing then one year of marginal salt and everyone was abuzz with save the salt, protect the surface, stop the mining and then when Speedweek ended it seems to have become a back burner discussion. Unless I missed it while looking at Anders building his turbine bike I haven't seen much conversation on the racing surface lately. Being 2000 miles away really handicaps us on knowing what is happening out there.
