Calder opened in the early 70s with a sort of artificial surface as well. It was made by 3M, McKnight's company, and it was supposed to keep the track from getting muddy in the frequent So. FLorida rains. Took it out after a few years. It has taken a while to get this technology to an acceptable level.
