Norwalk 1320 Covered in Dirt (1 Viewer)

[Gone Dead Train]

Got a Email from Norwalk over a month ago, about this deal. Not sure what to think of it.
Last time I was at Norwalk in 2018. Bader had just spent One Million Dollars on concrete.
From starting line to the finish line. Do you really want to cover it in dirt? Better hope it
doesn't rain, but then again if it does rain, just have mud bog races.

They did a similar deal at Phoenix a few yrs. ago. Didn't seem to hurt the track.

This has been done at several tracks. I don't ever recall there being a situation where the track surface suffered any damage.

You have to admire Bader's entrepreneurial spirit. He continues to find ways to make money, unlike other places who take the easy way out and make their track an Amazon storage facility.

They bury the baseball field at Angel Stadium every January in dirt for monster truck and motocross races. They've gotten so used to doing it that rather than import the dirt every year they created a place in the parking lot north of the steel Big A to store it all year. Yet somehow the grass is green again for opening day (it comes fresh from a local desert sod farm).

I'm sure Bader will get this track back in order. Much ado about nothing.

Monster energy supercross makes them keep the dirt, they do it for all the venues they race at.

I imagine that the touring events would do that. Imaging the cost saving having the dirt on site v.s. having them bring it in.
