My understanding was that demolition of the existing Auto Club Speedway was supposed to start the first half of this year.

I thought that as well from the previous news releases, but the most recent news on the track website seemed somewhat indefinite....

I am surprised that the SCCA Major event is still proceeding. Seems odd that they can reserve an ambulance when they are in such high demand because of Covid.

You would think they would cancel everything and accelerate the change. Many high end hotels have done that.

Paul, I think it might have something to do with LA County, City of Fontana, and Cal EPA for EIR review and permitting. LACO's permitting has slowed to a crawl due to Covid. Just breaking asphalt and digging a hole needs approval for a capped toxic waste dump that was a steel mill.

Actually San Bernardino County do to a bit of gerrymandering. Of coarse being smaller than LAC is not going to help.
