Jim, you know I consider you a friend but I have to call you out when you post ridiculous crap like this. If you're too lazy to use Google Earth and simple math to figure out the true seating capacity of a track, you could, at the very least, go to the track's website which plainly proclaims their seating capacity to be 3,000 people.

I know, I know; you're going to reply by saying you're just repeating what you heard. There are a lot of problems with that approach. One is the fact it makes you look like an idiot. The other is the fact it detracts from all the other events which DO draw more than ten thousand people.

Before you ask, the answer is "Yes!". I really DO know the actual seating capacity of every drag strip in the country.
