    The "Milwaukee Mile" is a very important piece of history that needs to continue for future generations. Destroying the track and building condos or whatever in its place is mortal sin against America!

    Do we have to get rid of everything that made Milwaukee famous?! Keep the track open !!!!

    Steve Smyczek April 03, 2016 | New Berlin
    The Milwaukee Mile is legendary around the world. People from Europe, South America and Asia don't know the Brewers, Bucks, or Packers, but many of them recognize the Milwaukee Mile. It puts Milwaukee on a Global stage more than any other asset we have. It's too bad our local media refuses to embrace this concept and help promote events there...if they did, there would never be any discussion of having it go away. Support the Mile!

    The Mile is a place of historic significance. It needs to be saved and promoted by someone who knows how to bring back at least some of it's previous glory.

    I have many memories here and absolutely love the sounds coming out of Milwaukee during summer with the races going on. Please don't think about the money, it can do nothing but bring it in if you had the right staff behind it. I agree with my buddy Ace. I love the mile the sounds the atmosphere and the Indy car races last year were phenomenal

    The Mile is legendary. So many of the greats have raced here. This is where "the bug" bit me. Sneaking between gaps in the fence to take pictures of the stock cars in 1970.

    I grew up in West Allis to the sound of racing. My heros were on the Mile. The Iconic Mile Moment is Sunday morning when the neighborhood church bells ring followed by that other beautiful sound...racing engine starts!

    Sometimes we have a lack of imagination in our town. We could have a vintage race car museum at the Mile that would be a year around attraction. Unlike many racing museums, it would have "pride of place" because it belongs there. Imagine families coming to our town to see two authentic museums for race cars and motorcycles. We could have a special day each year where we exercise vehicles from both on Amercia's oldest running track. To see and hear that would be nothing less than living history.

    I'll volunteer some time and effort toward this. Who else is in?

    Mick Brown March 30, 2016 | Chicago North Suburbs
    We feel that the Milwaukee Mile is an important piece of motor racing history and every attempt should be made to keep it as an active racing facility. Thanks in advance.

    Dan Loken March 29, 2016 | Louisville, KY

    The oldest race track in America, and oldest operating racetrack in the world is worth preserving. It is a magnificent track.

    i'm an american's motorsport enthusiast till i was born, and the milwaukee mile is the most historic Still-in-use speedway in the world. I sincerely hope that there will be the possibility to save it and to re-host Indycar & Nascar events.

    James Nielsen March 20, 2016 | Racine WI.
    What a real disappointment to witness the demise of a national landmark. I'm no expert on auto racing, but as a fan, I can't understand why this place fails to attract crowds for races? Someone, or some group, must have the ability???

    I started going to CART races 30 years ago at "The Mile" with my Grandfather. Sad to see that it has lost the Indy Race. My family has made it an annual event and I was hoping to continue the tradition with my kids. It is hard to understand how Indycar can't somehow retain some history.

    MICHAEL TREVISAN March 16, 2016 | MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN
    MY DAD TOOK ME TO MY FIRST RACE WHEN I WAS TWO YEARS OLD. THAT WAS BACK IN 1952. THE MEMORIES ARE STILL IN MY MIND AND I HOPE THEY WILL CONTINUE FOR YEARS TO COME. THE MILWAUKEE MILE WILL ALWAYS BE MY FAVORITE TRACK. ALL OF THE BEST DRIVERS PAST AND PRESENT LOVE THIS TRACK FOR ITS CHARACTER AND COMPETITION. FATHERS AND SONS LIKE THE BETTENHAUSENS, ANDRETTIS, UNSERS, AND OTHERS LOVE THIS TRACK. ALSO LETS NOT FORGET GREAT DRIVERS LIKE REX MAYS, CHUCK STEVENSON, JIM HURTIBISE, EDDIE SACHS, AJ FOYT PARNELLI JONES, JOE LEONARD, GORDON JOHKCOCK, MIKE MOSELEY AND ALL THE GREAT NAMES OF RACING. I PRAY THAT SOMEONE COMES FORWARD WITH A SOLUTION TO BRING BACK GREAT RACING MEMORIES FOR FAMILIES AND FANS AT 'THE MILWAUKEE MILE' LIKE IT DID FOR MY FAMILY AND ALL THE LOYAL RACING FANS OF "THE GREAT MILWAUKEE MILE". NOW LET'S GO RACING. AMEN.

    Bob Gates March 15, 2016 | Sun Prairie

    My great grandfather passed away when I was in high school. He wasn't all there during my childhood but the one subject he never forgot was his Race/Indy cars. He would tell me wild stories of testing out the cars by his garage on the Fox Point/Glendale border. I could see a man almost become giddy and childlike telling me how he would test drive them up and down Port Washington road when it was still just a dirt road surrounded mostly by farms. He is also a survivor of a very bad crash at the mile. To this day I have no idea how a man who had such a enormous part of his skull crushed lived. I have so many photos and heard so many stories. I think my heart would break if I can't show the mile to my little girl. There is so little preserved for the future as it is. It's important, it's history, it's my family. It was once Bill Schoof's playground. Please help save the Milwaukee Mile.

    Adam Bannon February 29, 2016 | Toronto, Canada
    At least bring back a truck race!

    Noah February 28, 2016 | Indiana
    Amazing track with a lot of rich history. Truly a legendary track that should not die like it's friends like Ontario and Wilksboro

    I really hope someone makes the decision to come here. I'd love to see NASCAR return the trucks and XFinity Series and maybe even bring the Sprint Cup into the mix and add another legendary tracks that drivers would love to win at.

    Larry December 23, 2015 | Milwaukee
    So very sad that the Indy cars will no longer run at the Mile. It is highly unlikely it will ever return now. Indycar's schism & the continual jerking around of the date killed it. Michael Andretti tried really hard for three years, but it was clear that the effort was significantly less in 2015. A beautiful track that will slowly waste away with a nostalgia events. I think we may see an end to Indycar all together in the next 20 years, as the Speedway continues to mismanage the series.

    Andy Seipel December 22, 2015 | St. Marys, Ohio
    Bring NASCAR Back. Xfinity Series, Truck Series, K&N East vs West, USAC Silver Crown and ARCA in one weekend!!!!!

    I grew up in Milwaukee watching dirt track and races at the mile. I attended Jim Clark's first practice runs in his Lotus Ford and saw Jim Hurtibese, AJ Foyt, and Roger Ward duel it out nose to tail until Hurtibese major crash when Foyt car misfired and slowed on the front stretch. Please keep Indy cars running at the Mile.

    Saw Mario win, saw Mario hit the wall in turn one and got AJ Foyts autograph in the pits; that is the Milwaukee Mile. The track rocks!!!

    Thomas Biggs October 27, 2015 | Washington, D.C.
    The Mile has more history, more heritage, and more of a legacy than even Indianapolis itself. IndyCar, you would be making a huge mistake to abandon this this track. Please make racing at Milwaukee a reality again, or you will be losing some of your most dedicated fans.

    Kevin September 22, 2015 | Janesville, WI
    Who in their right mind other than a non-racing fan would let go of an heirloom such as the Milwaukee Mile. Management, ownership, Milwaukee and the great state of Wisconsin need to put a focus on not just saving but enhancing the Milwaukee Mile!
