    Well you act like it will still be like that in September, They will have it all cleaned up within a week or two and the rebuilding will start, so by then they will be close to being done

    I think all will be fine. On the AMS site, they say that yesterdays races and next week races where cancelled for sure but the rest are up in the air. If they think there is a possibility that it will be ok for an event in 2 weeks, I'm sure they can have the whole place ready for NOPI in 2 months!

    Well, they may just have to go with a smaller venue and limit the amount of cars they let in. Wouldn't neccasarly (spelt that wrong) be a bad thing.

    well they said on the news they will be cleaning it up as quickly as possible to get ready for a race in October.. but they still have to get inspectors in their to check structural integrety (sp) of areas on and around the track....


    And I own a civic so I'm not showing since their are already enough of my style car there every year...

    Nopi has not been cancelled in September. At this point in time they are still planning on the event going on.

    AGAIN!!! NOPI does not use any part of the track but the INSIDE AREA!! Its not hard to understand this, NOPI will go on, because the damage is on the structures not the infield

    Yeah, but the question is....will the AMS Insurance company allow them to use it. The insurance company may not allow them to open any part of the AMS until all work is complete and inspected for saftey reasons.
