Regardless what they do, they have a hard road ahead, being an asphalt track on an island in dirt country.  Not sure that there even is an answer.

 

If it were me, I would travel to a few of the bigger asphalt super late races, and round up as many used tires as I could.  The super late guys aren't going to run them more than once, but they still have life in them.  We filled our box truck to the ceiling once after a race at Sandusky with what was left behind in the pits after the races, and raced the whole next season at Hickory on them.  Bring back what you find and give them to guys to try their dirt cars on pavement.  Small price to pay when your main objective is to try to get racers to your track.  

 

Rules?  Limit of four tires and one engine.  Get any cars you can get and try to put on a show.  Qualify everybody and run classes by brackets on how they time, and time the leader each lap on a breakout time to prevent sandbagging.

 

Payout?  Give everybody the same amount, maybe a few bucks more to the winner, but you want any and all cars that you can get.

I wish the track all the luck in the world and I feel bad but : 1. Relying on asphalt guys that live 2 hours away hardly sounds like a successful plan. 2. Why would u think the dirt crap would be successful? They didn't bother to come the last time and what u think the dirt fans will come? They wouldn't even show if it was turnedback to dirt- it'd take to much effort for the locals to find something new to complain abt..

  I would show up,if it was dirt. I can;t remember the last race i wasn't at up there.  I live 2 1/2  hours away. I enjoy the place and the ride up there.   Weekly no, but for specials , the place was always packed.
