What was the airport impact?



A NASCAR track with that many seats gives rise to a TFR (stadium rule)
restricting aircraft traffic unless they are in contact with ATC. Arlington,
being an uncontrolled field except once a year during the EAA fly-in, would
be effectively shut down.


Believe me, if you had a NASCAR national event there, they will most likely
put in a temporary tower. There's a TON of heavy metal that follows that
circuit around.
