"We have a half a million visitors that visit the track annually, and I'm not under any delusions that I'm going to set attendance records this year," he said."What we do is, we look at events that are manageable, where we can social distance."He said the track had about 100 events on the calendar this year, but he's now hoping to run 18 to 20 smaller ones.Bader plans to release the track schedule next week.
