Only thing SAR is doing is getting bigger! It is the Speedway near Toyota that is closing cause of new houses and land costs.

You are talking about SAS not SAR! SAR just had the track redone and the events there are getting bigger and better everytime.

Instead of repeating your friend's stupid rumor, you could have gone to SAR's website or given them a call.

Oh, and Jimmy... don't even pretend you race on a legal track.
