Its becoming like that in a lot of places though, not just Phoenix. Damn shame as night racing is so much better in the summer than losing 10 pounds during the heat of the day. And yes, I know the DNC is in Feb....
Manzanita did not close because of the city, like everything it was money, they like tripled their money in 3 years. You are right tho, it was one of the best tracks in the country.
