We heard all the pluses of the surface voiced the same way back then but it was never accepted or adjusted to.. What I see now as the big differance is Keenland versus Remington Is it someting so simple as ,"wheres the money"? Who is pocketing the profits from selling this stuff?

Keeneland owns 50% of the polytrack put in North American tracks, Martin Collins LLC owns the other 50%. Michael Dickinson owns Tapeta. I have no idea who owns Cushion track.
