Took a run down to Sunset after work today, Mark and the crew were hard at it as I walked in.  Anyone who thinks that they have run out of money, it wont open in time, or that Mark bailed on the project, well....you have another thing comin!  Walked around talking with Mark and Ted Grey for awhile and I can see alot of vision and admiration for whats going on at that place.

Seeing the amount of work already underway, and what still has to be done, its no wonder that nobody has had time to answer anything on CRO.  The concrete wall is done on the front stretch smooth, ALL the grand stand seating has new planks put down, the infield is flat smooth and near pavement, pit area is shaping up and will have alot more room when done.

Probly one of the best features is the infield pit area, the very centre is raised up about 5 or 6 feet higher, so the crews can see the whole track nice and high up, with no visual distraction from pit carts, tow trucks, or the wall itself when its installed.

This track is a must see to those who have never been to Sunset Speedway or haven't been there in a while. I'm amazed everytime I go there and I always notice improvements and the stands seem to be fuller everytime you go.

I think the track will be on the NCATS schedule in years to come and people you have to be patient as Mark and the others at Sunset are busy people but they will come on and answer questions. Mark has been answering questions on here for many many years as I remember him coming on here when he was racing in CASCAR when we first started the site.

Thanks Mark and the other from Sunset that take the time to post update or field questions about Sunset Speedway.

There are a few people that work for tracks that know how to use CRO as a tool to help improve their tracks and listen to what the fans and drivers say about their tracks.
