By the start finish pit complex theres a grandstand that their view directly in front is the back of another grandstand, you can't see the cars going through T3&4 and will only see the back of the cars as they go down the front stretch. Outside of the stands in the start/pit complex, the seats suck. The lux stands in front of the Bellagio are so close to the track you can barely see the road, plus at the fastest point those people are not going to see anything besides a car for a second since its at the curve of the backstretch.
What's hilarious is how they said at least roads will get new paving, but they only paved one side of the roads which is the racing circuit. All of the track is so narrow I don't see how there's going to be much passing. It's going to be a red flag wreck fest, prolly won't go the distance.
If the casinos don't see a larger profit than a normal weekend, this might be the first and last year.
