We’re going to start by doing a preview of this weekend’s All-Star Race and moving it to Dover; having Dover in the Speedway Motorsports portfolio and concerns that it’s going to fade off the schedule with constant changes; the operational view of hosting a crown jewel event and on a holiday weekend with the Coke 600; the reception to going back to the oval in the fall; changing a race after the schedule has already been announced; the feedback that is taken in from the race fans; collaborating with the drivers; the validation of reprofiling Atlanta Motor Speedway; a look at the collaboration with NASCAR to create a schedule when both sides want their own things; the anticipation for a North Wilkesboro points race; the measure of success as the season goes on.
