    I love the Milwaukee Mile. I love the fact that we have this great race track right in the middle of our city. We have to preserve this gem of a track.

    Growing up in Wauwatosa, my dad and I used to attend races all the time. I have seen state fair go through many transitions, physically and financially and in the end it has alway survived. This park and its track are at a vary critical stage of their existence. There are many that flat-out don't care what happens and would prefer the idea of redevelopment. We all have seen how well that goes....look a half mile east, that went well didn't it?!! The State of Wisconsin is truly blessed with a tremendous sense of racing heritage. At one time there were more drivers coming out of Wisconsin than any other state. This track needs to gather state wide and even national attention in support of its future. There needs to be a political agenda pushed through to Madison to secure funding from both the public and private sector. However, with that said, it can't go the same route taken by the last ownership that bled it dry. As a fan of the Milwaukee Mile what can we do? Write local and state representatives and demand action to keep the "Mile" open.

    Too many historic tracks are being torn down, and the oldest track in the world should be saved from that threat. ARCA was a good start with a pretty good crowd, and I think it shows that Milwaukee still cares about racing.

    I grew up coming to this place! But as I got into my teenage years I stopped paying attention to racing but now. Now I’m back and in love with racing again and I want to be able to bring my kids to the mile one day and I just think it’s too cool not to keep around we need this track.

    I go to slinger speed way every Sunday and I just think if all the late model tracks in Wisconsin were to run at the mile just once a month instead of their local tracks we could see some amazing racing

    Save the Mile! It's a true treasure and auto racing events there are important to the local residents of West Allis as these events help the local economy in a similar way to "The 500" does for residents of Speedway, IN.

    Robert Merkel May 24, 2020 | Milwaukee
    Wisconsin has a rich motorsports heritage, and the Milwaukee Mile is big part of it. Keep this under-appreciated gem open and active.

    Christie Pape April 30, 2020
    I grew up at the mile. My father worked Fire & Rescue in the North Turn throughout the 60's and 70's. We hung out with AJ and Al & Bobby Unser....thanks Bobby for calling me a little boy after dad cut my hair! Stuck with me..... LOL Anyways, the Mile isn't just a place, it's a very important piece of Milwaukee's history and for many of us, we have life stories from the memories made there. We need to save this historic place!

    I have been going to the fair park ever since there was a dirt track in the infield .I do not want the experience to stop for future generations of race fans or the drivers and their crews .Many great racers started their careers right here !!!

    This race track is a historical set piece. If it is demolished after a long time of being unused, this venue will become the next Nazareth Speedway.

    So many memories of so many races of different types. Favorites were Indy cars and Sentinel 200 (USAC vs ARCA stock cars). Words could not describe the loss of this track. I would much rather drive to Milwaukee for races than drive 7 miles to Chicagoland !!!

    Tom Wright November 17, 2019 | Brookfield, WI

    Patti November 09, 2019 | West Allis
    I'm not even into racing but...Save the Mile! Because:
    * The history is too awesome and rich to let it simply wilt away
    * The name, "The Milwaukee MIle" is cool!
    * I grew up blocks from the Mile, the sound of the race cars is nostalgic, I love it and I always loved the activity it brought to the area, my neighborhood.
    * If racing can be so successful elsewhere, why, on earth, not here? This confuses me.We need good energy & leadership & support, can I help?
    * Races bring revenue to other business in the area and in the Fair park itself.

    Great facility, Still in fantastic shape.A lot of Hall of Fame drivers have raced here. Is very much worth saving and promoting. Hopefully the other series will follow ARCA in their return!!! Well done ARCA!!!

    Seth September 21, 2019 | Milwaukee
    Great racing history in Milwaukee. The track and track facilities have been underutilized for a very long time. Moving forward with the right management and promotion of many different types of racing, this venue could once again draw huge crowds and bring in big money for the fairgrounds.

    Larry Storm September 21, 2019 | Canada
    The mile has always been a great venue for many events, and with the right vision can be a year round multi purpose facility. And a great draw from all over the world!

    Ray September 20, 2019 | Montréal, Canada
    As a long time race fan, seeing races from Milwaukee was always the highlight of every season. Please keep the tradition alive!

    Been racing here even before Indy. I remember when the Milwaukee Journal sponsored a day of mixed racing called "Young America on Wheels" every summer for yesrs. Used to be three races during fair week. How many greats have raced, and won, here? Could make a case for the mile to be on the registry of historical places.
