Should Race Track "Bay Meadows" be renamed BAZE MEADOWS?

Yea, I liked it when Gary Stevens and Ken Rudolph mentioned that. I don't see why not, Bay Meadows means nothing at the moment and it would take away nothing. But by naming it Baze Meadows it would recognized the track as being the one where he worked at and broke the record. If someone were to say " Hey, let's go to Baze Meadows" , they'd know that history was made there.\n\nI'm all for it...

Sad no like Shoemaker breaking Longdens record or Pincay passing Shoemaker it is a day to remember a life time accomplishment.Records are made to be broken it does not mean Baze is a better jockey he will be the first to say what a honor it is to be in a class with greats, Pincay,Shoemaker and Longden.Remember someone well come along and set anew record after Baze.Russell is an extremely talented jockey who has worked very hard to set this lifetime win record it is something to see and remember and i an sure Laffitt will wish Russell the best in future and congratulate him on his achievement.

Imagine you are in a horse race on a very strange track starting with say 20 desks side-by-side.  There are four bends in the track: Freshman, Sophomore, Junior and Senior.  Many of the racers are getting exhausted but the crowd still cheers them on, Mom and Dad the loudest.  The winners will get top jobs and the losers will be also-rans.  It would be so exciting if the race could all be condense into four minutes or less rather than four years or more.  It's just a game except my brother-in-law (who managed a huge corporate staff of engineers and scientists) said, "There's no such thing as a game!"  I lived in Saratoga Springs, NY where the windows clean people.  Much better to be on track.  Go! go! go!

California and the area around Death Valley is a very active seismological region.  It is one of the hottest, driest, lowest places on the surface of the planet.  I think the "racetrack" rocks may be moving due to a magnetic field prevalent in the area.  Especially if the rocks are iron ore (I don't know.).  The other explanations and theories I've read just don't make any sense.\n\nIn any case, here's some great pictures:\n\nhttp://www.billandcori.com/deathvalley/dv_moving_rocks.htm

Yeah, I've been there.  Always had a good time, but level of racing is definitely a cut below the major tracks.  Grove City is pretty industrial, so if you go I'd say stay in downtown Columbus.\n\nOh, yeah; I just watched the first couple races there on simulcast today and was reminded--Beulah Park is often used by out of town trainers for class relief.  So if you see a horse that has raced or trained at, say, Arlington or Hollywood Park, it's probably a good bet even if the animal's form is questionable.  It is really not a high level of competition that goes on there.  Edgar Paucar and Cesar Camaque are probably the two best jockeys.

Bad judgement by track stewards.

It is (I know this for sure, because I am going there this summer) happening in British Columbia, Canada. More specifically, Vancouver, and the surrounding areas. There are numerous mountains for the downhill (skiing and snowboarding) events to take place at. The indoor events (ice skating, curling, etc.)- as well as the opening/ closing ceremonies- will happen right in Vancouver. I'm not sure where the nordic, and other outdoor events will happen, but probably just outside the city. They have really great facilities everywhere, so even though they have a lot of work to do, they already have a great head start. Also, I know from experience, the village at Whistler/ Blackcomb are great "tourist" attractions, and there is a great deal to do right in Vancouver.

theres some nice crushed gravel trails around here, that used to be railroad tracks.  great because its softer than asphalt, and not many hills.

nooooooooo, they should be the "alaska saints"...\nback to reality, yes they should remain in "the big easy". it will help with tourism, which would ultimately, help the city get back on it's feet. that, & marti gras; BIG TIME would help.

I do NOT like that race track! It sooooooooo boring and NASCAR had the nerve to give it two dates while they take off Rockingham and take Darlington's second date away!

Went to Park City in 2002 to officiate and spectate. A WONDERFULL experience. Went with a group of 15 people. Rented a condo about 1 mile from the site( for Luge). Had to split the cost 8 ways ( couples) only way to afford it. Ticket won't be Available yet but start sniffing for a place to stay. Be ready for sticker shock.\n\n                    Lugeman

there isn't a ski racing section either. i think that there should be an x games category because there awesome! maybe if you keep asking x games questions there will be one.

It is dangerous..but I understand the sport..I think they need to have more  legal 1/4 mil tracks available for public use...

Actually Neither Rather go to Bristol so can see whole track and more action.\nAt Daytona drivers to careful not too much action\nAnd Talladega is good but wish it was further back on racing schedule so better time

Hmm, this sounds like personal communications to me.  Against site policies.\n\nSince "nascar" is in the name, I would suggest one of the red states for a location.
