  1. Speed? Mark Miles are you daffy? Numero uno priority should be to make the cars LOOK sexy and get out of the ironclad TV contract with NBCSN. At least if they look good, they'll look good at slower speeds. And if the racing is so great and they look good, well, maybe folks might want to watch. Right now, the DW12 looks like possom-faced roadkill. Perception of the fans now equates to 99.82% of possible race fans are tuning out. If you needed $100M and Derrick Walker to figure that out for ya, youse guys are never gonna amount to nuttin.

  2. Congrats to the speedway. 99.9% percent of the sponsors are gone the day after the race is over. Short term, speedway-centric thinking got us in this mess.

  3. Best description of the history of this death-trap sport-spectacle. http://www.advanceindiana.blogspot.com/2013/02/indiana-taxpayers-forced-to-pay-for.html

  4. I frequently travel to Minneapolis on business. The last time I was there I had meetings in the Uptown neighborhood. I remember saying to myself, wouldn't it be cool to see Broad Ripple evolve into something like this. The look, feel and atmosphere is nearly identical to BR, the only difference is intermixed with the traditional bungalows and storefronts are cool mixed unit developments such as the one proposed here. I understand the fear of too fast, too soon, however I believe that all of the opponents would be pleasantly surprised to see just how well these types of developments integrate with enclaves such as BR. Also, the tenants who live in these units are overwhelmingly the type of new residents you want for this area, young professionals who spend money. One interesting item to note, despite at minimum the 5-6 developments similar to the one proposed for BR, there was no obvious traffic jams, on the contrary, a great deal of vibrant foot traffic during all hours of the day. This was also my experience, we parked our rental car there around 11, walked to a very cool Cuban/Asian fusion restaurant for lunch (one of the many cool local restaurant options), met with two different customers, walked to Lake Calhoun to kill time, conducted a customer audit, walked to dinner (a great local seafood spot), checked out a local band at a great gastropub, then ended our night people watching while walking back to our car to head back to our hotel in Medina, MN. Of the 7-8 hours we spent in Uptown, we did as the locals did, we walked everywhere. I say all of this because I love BR as much as everyone else on this board and as a young professional myself, I could see myself moving to BR if it offered the same residential amenities as Uptown. **and please no snarky remarks telling me that I should just move to Uptown...trust me, it would be amazing, however my heart is in Indy**

  5. This now amounts to a scam with what it takes to stop the account. There is no warning that your account is going to auto-renew and there is no way to delete your billing information. This is a company that touts saving you from the scamming practices of others. They have no regard for whether you are satisfied or not so why would you trust their advice?
