Obviously, we're getting closer. At some point in the calendar, we have to have negotiations with the one it comes down to.

Bringing NASCAR to a fan's hometown is one of the great benefits that the ONMC offers. Through the unfolding of this grassroots process, fans from all corners of America will now have a better opportunity to follow the sport in a more meaningful way.
It's difficult because everyone wants to know why. It's about the cities still in the process, and it's frustrating to not be able to talk more freely about it. (Richmond and Kansas City) both had proposals that were credible, and you could visualize it working. But it's a question of who presents the best overall approach of the five.
You fall in love with these cities, and there wasn't one dud in the process, even though we thought there might be. I think RIR and Richmond have been elevated as NASCAR went through this.
We could have taken a bit more time in getting this done, but it's not like an Olympic process where you don't talk to the city for another 12 years. We have two big races a year at Richmond International Raceway. The last thing we want to do is string them along; we couldn't do that in good conscience.
NASCAR is extremely appreciative of the time, effort and commitment put forth by the cities of Kansas City and Richmond. Both of their proposals were outstanding and the passion and enthusiasm the people involved showed for the NASCAR Hall of Fame has made a lasting impression on all of us.
Based upon the proposals that we have reviewed internally for the past several months, we believe these three cities provide us with the best opportunity to build and develop a world-class NASCAR Hall of Fame for our millions of loyal fans.
It's a competitive market and we're seeing more of an educated customer that has looked on the Internet and become astute as to what they want. If they're going to spend money, they want quality.
