Poly simply does not work in certain climates.
My question is, if they( people in this business) believe ANY surface other than dirt is better and safer, why then did not SA management explore using another artificial surface?

I know people keep saying this, but the BC has never ruled out synthetic tracks. That wasn't the reason SA went back. They went back because they spent over $10M on synthetic tracks and failed to figure out how to install one properly.
