Let's keep racing (Indy Cars) at the Milwaukee Mile. Milwaukee needs this. The world gets to see the race, track, and Milwaukee as a sports entertainment venue. It's great exposure for the entire area. We already lost the Circus Parade, the areas biggest attraction. Will we let racing at The Mile die too?

Save the Mile. It has history like the Kentucky Derby.

A better race series will replace the lame Indy Car Series soon...

I lover going here every year. I wish NASCAR would have events here as well! Probably my favorite track along with Indy and Chicagoland

They are kidding right? Grew up around the Mile in West Allis since childhood, now live in southern Cal. That mile itself should be a historical landmark for Milwaukee giving its long history.
That track has got to be one of the oldest racing venue's in the world. Many fond memories of Rodger Ward, AJ Foyt, Mario etc etc. and lets not to mention the local modified celebrities Miles Milieus, Fasbender, Burtzer pardon the bad spelling of the names.
Respectfully,

This track is the heart of auto racing in Wisconsin, representing its rich heritage, no less than a museum. It deserves to be cherished and preserved. Also, the current facility is first-rate and the IndyCar race and event promotion has never been better. Let's support this!

We have supported this track since the 1970s. It deserves to be saved for generations to come. We don't need any more bldgs in its place. SAVE OUR TRACK.

My family has attended races at the milwaukee mile for more than 80 years. It is very special to our family and was instrumental in launching my own racing career that lasted 16 years.

Aside from the Indianapolis 500, this is the race I always look forward to. In terms of history and prestige in open wheel racing it is probably second only to the IMS. It is a racing institution. It is a right of passage for the USA's and the world's greatest drivers. I agree that the track needs to be sold to someone who understands this or management that understands this and knows how to market the race needs to be put in place. It should not be developed into just another set of condos, strip malls, or cheap suburban housing. There is enough of that already. There is only 1 of the oldest continually used race tracks in the world and that's the Mile. Honestly, it should be designated a historical landmark. It will be a sad chapter in racing history if the Milwaukee Mile is destroyed.

this track is a drivers legacy, unsers, foyt, andrettis, trickle, wallaces, sauters , come on man! don't let it close

It's where men race.

bring back NASCAR and the other racing leagues.and have someone run this place other than the fairgrounds.they have proven they dont know to run it.but most of all get the vintage cars back there!

Had been going to the Milwaukee Mile for 55+ years, more worth saving than a new Milwaukee Bucks arena, lets get our priorities right

My family loves being a part of and watching racing at the mile. It's history and tradition running along side of action and great racing. Would be a shame to let it fade out.

In all fairness, guys, this is not the forum to take cheap shots at the Fair board. I have seen great success with other county owned fairgrounds speedways, when the fair board simply leases the operation to an outside party. I don't know how much consideration this has been given, Obviously Mr. Andretti has taken a shot at the Mile in some fashion to keep Indy cars coming, but who can jump into this role other than a Menard, Penske, Andretti...?
He's out there, so please Fair Board, hold on until we find him. The tradition, the history, the ability to utilize this awesome facility is something we don't want to lose. To a kid from Wisconsin (the Midwest) making laps at Milwaukee is as close as we may get to Indy or Daytona. Sure was the highlight of my racing career.

Please keep the Milwaukee Mile operating.

Raced at the mile with USAC in the 70's and hope to with IMCA Vintage. Keep the landmark, history, tradition, excitement.
Keep the mile.

this track needs to be saved

It's time for the Fair Park Board to realize that they know absolutely NOTHING about racing!!! With proper promotion and multiple events (large and small) The Mile can be a huge asset for the next 110 years. Find someone who can run this track!!! It's not you Fair Park Board.

The ARCA summer special that brought Matt Kenseth, his son, and other recognized fan favorites to the Mile must continue in some form. The Mile needs two or more large events every year.

I hope the Miles future is no longer in doubt after several consecutive years of successful IndyCar events!

Why is the oldest race track in the world not a Wisconsin nor a national landmark?

I have been going to the Mile for over 20 years! and work 5 minutes away now - it is a great facility!! I wish more people appreciated it and valued that it is there!I I LOVE the mile and have had many great times there! And we have met so many great drivers and celebrities over the years! Please Save the Mile!!!

Even though I never been to the track to watch a race, I've always enjoyed watching the races there and learning about all of the history about the track and the legends that drove on it.

So many amazing experiences attending races here. Always loved going to either Indy or NASCAR races here, save the mile!

I have been going to the Nascar and Indy races since before I even knew what the heck Nascar and Indy really was. I loved going to the races every year and I looked forward to it. I dont want to see the Mile go. Its my home town track and I love that it is still here. Bring something here besides just Indy car. Its worth a few ARCA, USAC, ASA races. Its the Legendary Mile.
