Who has been to a SX race this year?
How did the attendance look?
It look like FIM lost money by going to Jacksonville, it look like no one was there.

I've been to one or two.

The stadium in Jacksonville holds about 77,000. Attendance listed on the AMA results were something over 31,000.

The FIM isn't the one that makes or loses money. It's Feld.

Is the Silverdome there? I thought it had been imploded?

I've got to be honest GuyB. I had to look it up. This is what I found on the silverdome.

"In July 2008 the Silverdome was sold to a local investor and the site is schedule to become a hotel and conference center."

This might change with the current economic status of Detroit though.

Atl. was packed and it has been for the last 10+ years.
That would make you think that Jax should be a good draw also.
The fact that it is an outdoor stadium could have made a big difference with the weather.
S.E. weather is all over the map this time of year.
