    LOVED this track when it hosted IndyCar races. It is so important that we bring the Indy race back there. Rich history that dates back before IMS was built. I would in the future like to just have the opportunity to attend the race.

    Sad that with all the multi-millionaires in racing combined can't put together a corporate group to not only save but operate this historic shrine. My dad used to take me to the Rex Mays and Tony Bettenhausen races every year! Great, great memories in that grandstand.

    Watched as a child dreaming of seeing race live . So as a adult I drove 12 hours to attend this indycar race in 2005, The mile and road America are the two best tracks . Racing is about the tracks!!! Drivers retire please do not let tracks with history Retire !!! Thank you

    I spent my youth attending Indy car races at Milwaukee Fair Park with my dad and brother. The "Mile" is an important part of Milwaukee history and should be preserved for future generations.

    Ciarán Reed May 03, 2017 | United Kingdom
    The last ever oval Champ Car race was held at the Mile. It is also one of the most exiting races on the calendar. This track should be saved by someone. Given how much IndyCar has gained from this circuit, why is IndyCar not trying to save its history.

    Mike April 30, 2017 | Milwaukee
    Oldest track in the World!! Please keep the Milwaukee Mile for future generations. We have many great memories.

    A tradition dating back in my family to when the track was dirt..look at the Wisconsin racing hero's that have developed here. Racing is not dead in Wisconsin. Time to diversify sports in Milwaukee beyound bucks and brewers

    Ronald Spannraft April 06, 2017 | Arizona
    My family has been attending the IndyCar races at the Mile for years. Even after my move to Arizona I would return for this event. Please do not let the Mile suffer the same fate as the breweries. Save this part of Milwaukee's history.

    Michael Gallun April 03, 2017 | Racine, WI.
    It amazes me, that this state continues to push money for losing franchises like the bucks and brewers, but will let this die.. I would give up the bucks and brewers anyday for this track.

    Instead making it difficult for Indycar or Nascar to run a race here, work with promoters to get things back on track! Proper promotion would bring crowds again. It would be a shame to lose such a historic track.

    Let's get this done! We are so fortunate to have this historic racing facility here. For decades it showcased the top drivers from usac, nascar, indycar, and asa. The Mile attracted thousands of race fans each summer and those of us who attended races remember the spectacle of these events. Today, when I attend a Monster cup race, I wonder what if...what if the Mile had been properly managed, marketed, and allowed to grow and keep up with other motorsport facilities? How much money could the track have brought into our local economy in a single weekend? Bring back racing to The Mile and this time let's get it right! This old historic track could be great again!

    Izzy Bonilla March 25, 2017 | Milwaukee
    Even though I'm new to Milwaukee I've travel across the USA extensively, so having a facility like this in your own backyard is rare. If it goes or if it's not used you will never get it back. A P3 or Public Private Partnership is the only way to go in order to save the Mile. Support Please

    With the resurgence of Indy racing and a Healthy NASCAR scene, there's no doubt regularly scheduled events at the mile would have a positive impact on the community.

    Grew up on South 79th just north of turn four. My first race was in 1967. I came to the Mile with press credentials starting in 2003. One of my favorite places on earth. I sure miss the racing there!

    I've been to the Indy 500 from 2008-2013, going to Milwaukee was a tradition that was broken prematurely. IndyCar and Wisconsin need to bring light to open wheel racing to the state via media promotion. This venue should be a US historic landmark, why is it not?!

    I drove this historic track a month ago as part of the Rusty Wallace Racing Experience. Just thinking I could be one of the last few people to drive this track in a list of racing legends blew my mind. Someone like Wallace or Penske should just write a fat check to own it and to keep corrupt State Fair management out of it.

    Need to bring racing back to Milwaukee

    Paul Roeber September 11, 2016 | Milwaukee
    Would like to edit last entry,,,

    Doing nothing will not bring it back.

    Paul Roeber September 11, 2016 | Milwaukee
    Hire whoever is running RA. They brought back "LeMans" in the early 2000's. Host any and every event there to build interest. Promote and get sponsors, advertise early, you cant get people there if they don't know in advance.

    I would hate to see the track go, but I know doing nothing will bring it back.

    Patti September 08, 2016 | West Allis
    I grew up and still reside just blocks from the mile.
    The sound of races is nostalgic to me and thus I love it.
    I do not want to see it the mile go and I wish I understood all the political and business reasons why we can't seem to make the mile successful.
    Racing may not be as big of a sport as it once was, but it is still a big sport. How does Road America fill their seats and we struggle? What are they and other successful race tracks doing that we are not? Why should this be so difficult?
    I am just one person, but if there is anything I can do to help keep the mile and make it more successful, let me know what I can do.

    Scott Therrian September 04, 2016 | New Berlin, WI
    Unfortunately the mile will be torn down, Road America hosting indy cars no chance indy cars will go back to mile if RA is on schedule.

    If you went to the mile the last couple indy races that were held there. You had to notice no one in the stands. Half the people in stands had free tickets.

    Indy series on the verge of not making it dosent help either.

    Nascar will never be back.

    It's a business and no one is going to invest in a business that doesn't have revenue, Andretti tried but realized he couldn't turn it around either.

    Sad news for sure

    Joe Bill Kuester September 02, 2016 | McHenry, IL
    This is a landmark for many of racers past and present. I have been attending the Fair and races since I was 6 years old. We already have enough Ghost Tracks out there.

    Gregory Zank August 17, 2016 | Menasha, WI
    Having grown up in Milwaukee, the Mile always provided a great entertainment venue. USAC Stock Car races, ASA, USAC Indy Cars, this history is amazing. If neighbors don't understand the noise, they shouldn't have moved there
