The goal we set out was to have great racing, a lot of overtaking, side-by-side racing, and the track we had last year, I don’t remember the exact number of overtakes, but there were parts of the racetrack where there was one line where there should have been the possibility to overtake, and so we weren’t happy with that.”

We’re going to go through with the investment and expense to go ahead and repave it in an effort to get it where it races better. It raced well enough according to the teams and drivers, but we want it to be as good as it can possibly be, so that’s why we’re going to repave it,” concluded Garfinkel.
