This thing brings nothing but misery to the residents of Baltimore who put up with it for 3 months, the folks who come for a weekend get a kick out of it. Show me the money?

I missed the last one, I'd like to see one, but only if the venue is handled better than the last one was. If there are any mistakes with the new group, just cancel the events in the future.

The event was fun, but a huge hassle to be in Baltimore all summer. Even with the new group running the show, I don't believe it will be profitable.

It will definitely be profitable to those who are in line in receive the profits, it's just not going to be any of us.
Jack can write an op-ed in The BS saying he no longer supports it, but he certainly did while it was happening and is just as responsible for going along with it.

Lisa O'Reilly They had a contract the last time and it went bust: so what will this one do? I was in favour of the grand prix at the start until it became a GRAND PRIX! 24,000 people on the waiting list for a section 8 voucher and the City pays out 7 million for a sporting event for a few. An insult at this stage.

Casey Jenkins This is a joke
