    I read they are chopping the track up into a half mile
    and a road course?

    They're also selling part of the land.

    Someone had some deep pockets to be able to buy the land out from under a long-standing NASCAR venue.

    They did that to themselves: The same drivers winning over and over, back to back championships. It got so predictable who was going to win. The seats began to empty, TV viewership declined. Nascar had to literally reinvent the wheel ("Roval" road
    courses, Playoffs, Stages within each race, etc).
