I don't either, mostly home for me but I was 'in the area' and had to visit. It is pretty amazing what they did to trackside given the fact what it used to be. Thank you Niles for pushing their ass....

Scav-

I haven't been to Trackside in a few months.....what did they do? Niles is decent, or WILL be, once they get the situation re: smoke straightened out.

I think he was talking about the re-modeling they did, new furniture, TV's, etc.

TV's AJ? You can see some of the new TV's from the moon. They got out of control. I have heard that it was close to a half million on renovations. Pretty insane if you ask me, the restaurant looks like Nasa now, BIGGEST TV's ever on the walls, compared to the 27"ers they had up there
