LOL just put one o' them TennDOT snow plows with a V-blade out front as the Pace Truck. Clean the SNOW and DayBris off the track in one swell foop.
Seriesly tho, Bruton Smith has kidded about putting a roof over this venue...it could and SHOULD be done! It doesn't have to be a 'real' solid, permanent roof but could be sort of an 'umbrella' design. open around the rim with lightweight tentpoles extending out from the rim and covered by a durable yet water protective skin. It could be hoisted by helo in multiple parts...
Call me BRUTON!!! I gots the VISION!
Can you imagine how loud it would be inside an enclosed Bristol? LOL. The vortex from the cars would probably exert enough torque to levitate the stadium like a toy gyro. Could be interesting... I can hear Mike Joy now... well folks, banking in turn three is now up to 135 degrees, and traction in turn one has really become a problem as it is flatter than Phoenix...
