That is the whole point Evan. Remember back in January when we were all excited about the upcoming Cayuga program? Then.......

I had a whole big response written out and clicked post and it disappeared. AAARRRGGG >:(
Anyways I'll try to get it done again.
The price is the price and the market will tell you if it is too much or too little. I know when I had an apartment for rent years ago I had it advertised for $400 a month and I had no takers. I put the price up to $650 and my phone rang off the hook.
I think Cayuga was getting back on the right track when they brought ARCA in although the PR was dismal. Think back in the day with ASA etal. They need to try to get back on the same track but with dual cards like ARCA / NCaTS or NCaTS / OSS or OSSCAR / ARCA etc. This would make people want to go for the weekend more instead of the ARCA Truck / ARCA Cars deal. They should also try to work weekend deals with Toronto Motorsports park.
Also close your eyes for a minute and imagine a place where all the tracks in Ontario get along. I know its hard but stay with me. Negotiate one weekend where every track has an off weekend and have the mother of all invitationals for SS, LM, LLM, etc. Cayuga would be neutral ground. All the tracks would have a piece of the action. You could have heat races for each different track. You would have division features that would have cars from all tracks. Money could be paid for the overall winner and top finishers from each track within the same race. You would have multiple races within races. Imagine the promotion and sponsorship possibilities. The rules would allow for "innovation" to an max performace limit without peanalty. Cars don't have to have all the same rules to allow for payouts through the field. Think of the people who would show up for a weekend of racing like that from all over Ontario and probably Michigan and New York.
Now open your eyes and see what we have now.....Sometimes all it takes is a spark to start a fire.
I have to stop typing now before I start crying :'(
They will have trouble filling the stands July 11th that is a big weekend around the GTA with many racing events.
In my opinion cayuga would need some full weekend to be successfull with some racing and a concert Friday night, some racing with street stock, late modle invitationals Saterday and a big show on Sunday than the could fill the campground, but they need to do it on a long weekend when other tracks don't have much happening. It used to work there and still does at some tracks.
