…Everyone opined that all speedways should be like Irwindale Speedway, and if a speedway weren’t, it was inferior and promoters’ promotional skills were impugned. It’s ashamed to see Irwindale shuttered, because it’s important to have short track in L.A., and we hope there is a white knight eventually or it will become another Ontario Motor Speedway. But, all credit goes to promoters who make money at facilities that can sustain themselves on operations.
