Just an awful decision.

If CD, or any other facility, wants to eliminate these on-track, fine. But in 2009 I think we probably have the technology to CHOOSE this option, so at least the online systems can keep them (and those B&M facilities that want them).

Stupid, stupid decision--typical of American racing.

Well said. It's one thing to want to avoid them on-track but seems foolish to not allow the OTBs and ADWs.

No dime supers, but 0.50 P4's.
