[QUOTE="MIG'DHORSE, post: 903924, member: 16707"] everyone is comparing the stadiums to this track, and someone even brought up the viaduct. rough number estimates, but both new stadiums cost roughly $500,000,000 correct? this track is proposed to be even less. Now, does anyone have the ESTIMATE for the viaduct? the cost of replacing it is like $2,800,000,000. The track estimate is nothing more than a small turd compared to that. Boston just restored its waterfront and went way over its initial budget. Does this mean that the proposed viaduct budget here in washington is a bit small? -YES. I can easily see this project costing more than the estimated 2.8 billion. This money is for property that will not bring any kind of direct revenue, mind you. It is simply money spent to make things look prettier. Do you think that the washington state government will tax us appropriately for this massive expenditure? HELL NO. We would all be broke. Thus, there is a washington state budget deficit that is written off to the fed. No big deal. We will never see the change. To sum up this long post, I am not a fan of NASCAR. Never have been, as I prefer rally and F1. Either way, I don't care if there's a track here or not, because I wont see a significant tax increase specifically from this track. We have bigger problems to worry about. (the viaduct) **a disclaimer for my possibly inaccurate numbers. just my .02 [/QUOTE]
