True, the size of their cheapest fields remains-in some cases-a legitimate lure, and the mandated focus there on ohio- bred events will always drag them down, but only a shameless apologist could really defend what they have been churning out in Austintown.
And before interpreting this post as biased or self-serving on the part of a Mnr employee, please remember that NOBODY has recommended MVR more often or with more enthusiasm than me. My numerous endorsements, both on here and on our show, are a matter of record.

I took a stab there early in the meet. Had a few winning days and more losing days. But the amount of shippers being jammed into races that were totally lame and unfit to race was a real turnoff. Not for me. Seemed to be no oversight at all.
