thanks to those who posted other info clarifying the issues with the track.

i think that poly may turn out no better than dirt. i think many of these tracks were due a change, and for whatever reason decided to go to poly. one thing it will bring about is fuller fields involving turf when it has to move to the main track.
BUT i think the line of bs involving this type of track was just that. it's been billed as being all-weather, when in fact cold temperatures are causing problems. of course dirt doesn't handle icy cold either. not as maintenance free as what was presented, kickback is an issue.

i think there was a rush to it. i think everyone knows that dirt tracks have to be re-furbished every so often. i know that some dirt tracks seem to be just fine regarding safety.

i think this poly was sold as a cure-all. it's not.

i think you and I are saying the same thing.

to me its, whatever the benefits or shortcomings are for polytrack, lets not exagerate them one way or the other. as they say "just the facts maam"
