It's expensive to install and then maintain on a daily basis. And it's really hard to accurately justify what the added value of such an installation would provide.

Trackus is probably more of an "industry" purchase than an individual racetrack purchase... or perhaps Equibase? I think there's a future in the technology, its the recipe which remains uncertain.
