leave aside the safety issue and say that its too early to be sure, synthetic tracks still handle weather better and are cheaper to maintain than dirt.

wow, really?
i thought all this time racetracks were built around natural racing surfaces!
i was hoping people would be able to realize that compared to 'artificial' surfaces, dirt and turf are one heck of a whole lot more natural.
and from what i've read, 'proper' maintenance of a synthetic surface really isn't all that much cheaper than dirt.
