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.

if you think about it, very little about the sport is natural.

Hmm...

Organic racetracks. I'm already counting the fiddy's and huneds.
