re: IndyCar race in Jefferson Parish proposed

NOLA has an awesome track and great facilities in general, but they would need some upgrades for spectators (like grandstands). Went to the last AMA Superbike race they had there. Too much flat ground, so you can't see much other than what's right in front of you. Love the track though - I ran the Porsche on the track several times last year. And for anyone who hasn't hit the rental karts yet, it's worth the trip for that alone.
