Oh please. I'm not saying your typical racing fan was, though certainly some were and that includes at this board.

Every single "story" that was fed to the press was hailing the safety and the incredible downturn in breakdowns at the polytracks when this stuff first came out. It was hailed as the savior of racing, a godsend. There was zero balance in the reporting. Now, there is just zero reporting.
