I'm sure it won't be too long until the whole place shuts down for good. Now I guess everyone will flood atco.

From all of the people I know that live in the area they aren’t mad about it. Complained of crappy prep and it being catered to the import crowd.

How bad could the prep be if top fuelers run there. Or just on test and tune days?
