Default Possible new track at Buttonwillow?

Anyone know about this? I saw this on another forum.

Cal Club just bought an additional 400 acres to build a new track adjacent the current track. That track will take several years for planning, approvals and construction.

not likely, they already have a big track, why build another when they already have problems filling the one they already have. I think.

Why don't they just use some of the money and repave the current Buttonwillow racetrack? Because it needs it badly!!!

Apparently, there will be a new track in SoCal, specifically the LA area.
