Surfers race to be mere shadow of its former self

In anticipation of a low turnout for the A1GP cars, in a SuperGP press release put out today, they are only going to construct 8,500 grandstand seats and 100 corporate suites that might add up to another 4,000 people or so. Assuming there was no mistake in their press release, the Sunday attendance is not expected to be stellar. The loss of the title "Indy" was perhaps a big blow because when AR1.com was there the locals all asked, are you in town for "The Indy?" It was a household name, now lost.
