So, I had the most amazing thought that I think most everyone here could be on board for. I'm a huge fan of the BBC show Top Gear. If you're any type of car fan, you've heard of this show. Or, at least, it's USA counter-part. For those who haven't read these articles over the last couple days, it looks like Netflix has picked up the boys to do a similar type of show for them that may start as early as March next year. I thought that it would be amazing if we could convince Netflix to pick up the management/ownership of Miller Motorsports Park. Use this as their 'base' of operations and testing the vehicles they have on the show. It would bring a lot of tourism to Utah and prod the cities out there to expand their tourism base by building more hotels and commercial businesses geared towards the track. I am going to setup a Facebook page with a couple friends and create an open letter to Netflix, with as much research to support it as we can, to put forward the idea to them. It's the most slim of chances but I think would be incredible for us. They could easily sell tickets to live recordings, or when they test certain vehicles on the track that we've never seen run in person. What are everyone's thoughts on the idea?

Very cool idea but I imagine it would take alot. I also had heard that is was already in the process of being sold but I forgot the company. I wanna say Lotus but I am not 100% sure, as I heard it in passing. I think the biggest challenge is Sundays draw and it being in the middle of nowhere with nothing nearby but I would love to see it kept reopen. I am sure there are enough car enthusiast throughout the state between all the different clubs that would like to see this come a reality.
