I mean we've had this track for years and not once have we had a Winston cup or a Nextel Cup race. I mean yeah we have Busch series come here every year but I want to see the big name racers. I mean I've heard it's because of a problem with that track but why can't they fix that?

There isn't enough seating or parking at Gateway to hold a Nextel race. But it would be great if they could remedy the problem.

I wish Gateway could get an event like that but there isn't enough parking or seating to accomodate Nextel Cup. There doesn't seem to be any room to expand any of that. With Kansas City already having a track and Nascar wanting to expand in Washington State and New York State I would say our chances of it ever happening are slim to none. Plus, the fans here need to fill the seats at the Busch Series race when it is here. As for big name racers, there are a few that do come for the Busch Series race because it is an off weekend for Nextel Cup. I'm just greatful we get what we do considering there is already two races in near by states that the Busch Series goes to Nashville and Memphis. Lets just be greatful for what the mighty ones at NASCAR give us because look at Rockingham and tracks like that, they have nothing. Usually the truck race is better than the Busch race for excitement & great racing. Gateway Truck series race a few years ago was one of the top ten truck races of that year according to speed channel. We get two great races already lets support those.

Who needs NASCAR Cup? We already have far better racing in the St. Louis area than you'll ever see in NASCAR. Fans need to get out and support the local tracks so we can keep it that way.

The proof of that was all over the place this weekend, with the best racing I've seen all year long at Belle Clair and Tri-City. If you want to see real racing, you don't have far to drive, and you can take the whole family for the price of one Cup ticket.

My name's Matt. I've lived in north county all of my life and I love this place. The people, the atmosphere, and the action. I consider myself a fire buff which basically means that I love every general aspect of fire fighting.
