No, they have Polytrack, or one of those other synthetics. Think the Dickinson surface

Yes, the track has the Tapeta surface (Michael Dickinson's surface).

Does anyone know who will be there -- trainers, jocks, etc.? I'd like to see what the condition book looks like -- however, based upon the geographics, potential quality of racing, surrounding areas, etc., there might be a great racing opportunities.

Well at least we know Cannon Shell will be there. He's already salivating over the big maiden purses.

If I'm driving, it's 5!

Was in Cleveland this weekend. Left last night at 6:20 and made it to the city at 12:20. 460 miles...

I would love to see them open the OTB's around the state that Penn National closed (mainly, Williamsport), but without allowing a slots parlor in them, there is not a bit of interest.

Still looking forward to a track in Erie...
