That sounds really interesting. I guess the main problem would be space -- where would the dirt, synthetic, and turf courses all fit? They could certainly do it at larger tracks. I think it's a brilliant idea, and I don' know why we haven't heard this more in the racing media.
Personally, I don't know why they just don't have synthetic training tracks all over the place and just have them race on dirt. Sounds simpler than an instant conversion to all synthetic everywhere like in California.
