From the local Harford County paper, "The Record":
Quote:
Several members of the stadium's event planning staff cringed during
Wednesday's stadium management board meeting cringed when [board
chair] Campion confirmed the Aberdeen City Council agreed there would
be no more auto racing events permitted in the stadium parking lot.
She said the council decided racing events caused damage to the
stadium's asphalt parking lot, which never received its final seal coat.
Members of the stadium's event planning team had concerns that
eliminating races and road rallies would cut a significant revenue source.
Campion explained it was too late to object to the decision, since a
city engineer had completed a study and determined the damage was too
great.
"I think we've done everything we can do," she said. "The city just
told me it has to stop."

Hopefully, this'll have no impact on this year's Subaru Challenge, but it'll definitely have an impact on all autocross events there next year...
