I wouldn't be concerned about it because there's virtually no chance that
NASCAR or CART will bless the proposed Staten Island track with a Winston
Cup or Indy race anyway.  There are already several tracks nearing
completion which are still begging for sanctions, such as the old Homestead
air base in Florida.  NASCAR said that it might add one more race to its
schedule in the midwest but since the northeast only recently won races by
these organzations at Laconia (Loudon), NH it's doubtful that Staten Island
will be much of a priority for them.
