What if, What if the infield of the Bristol Motor Speedway became a supercross track. Maybe even a little section going up into the banking, it could be a massive track. Could it be something or not?

It will be interesting to see how dirt on pavement will work out in March in NE tn. Weather is pretty iffy.
One of the worst blizzards to hit NE tn happened that same weekend about 30 years ago. About 14 inches. Ended up canceling a gncc that was held near greeneville, tn that same weekend.
Place definitely has enough parking, camping , and other amenities that would work great for moto.
Hell, they could limit it to 25% capacity and still have more than most stadiums have if they sell out.

There are currently 2300 loads of dirt inside the walls of Bristol motor speedway.
That is between 3 and 4 times more than a sx race in a football stadium.
The dirt is there.
They are having a month of dirt based car races there this month including nascar monster cup and world of outlaws.
Bristol is hardly "in the middle of nowhere"
Look at what is in a 4 hour travel radius.
Atlanta, Charlotte, Raleigh, Nashville, Richmond, knoxville, Columbia, Greenville, Chattanooga and everything between.
Daytona is such a cool event, I don’t see why other tracks can’t follow suit.
I would keep the bigger attended National tracks like a Red Bud and add events in new states with tracks closers to bigger cities.
Shit why not Solder field or Green Bay in February? It would be about the same risk of weather...
