Race Track on Staten Island = FIRST ?

This really isn't a Rumor more or less a suggestion.


Staten Island NYC isn't known for much things except its Robotics High Schools and High School Sports. Nascar is considering on building A Race track on the island to hold their events such as the Nextel Cup / Bush Series Races. After the track is built a wide variety of things can happen at that track and one of them could be a FIRST Competition. Not saying it should or it will but wouldn't it be great to have a Competition at a big venue such as a race track, Right Now NYC Regional holds 33 teams strong why not up the amount of teams that register for this competition to around 60+ They'll be plenty of parking and the main attraction the SI Mall manages to attract people of all ages from neighboring states. This track is years off from being built but just a thought with a venue that will hold at least thousands of people per race maybe just maybe FIRST can also get a hand in it as well. The only Downside is that it will be a Open Stadium === Not enclosed from the weather at all....... It will be another Florida Competition with the subtraction of WDW but Six Flags / Dorney Park / Hershey Park just a couple of miles away.

What Do You Think? Can It Happen if Nascar Follows through with its plans?
