couple of reasons, including

1. it's TINY, far from flat, not enough room for a good layout, let alone all the people, cars etc. (don't know why they didn't figure that out in '05)
2. no more parking lot events for FD

all FD events are like this except for atlanta.

also from what i heard the cost of the parking lot rental was insane.

or maybe they just didnt want any moer parking lot events becasue they can do better.

i.e. summit point raceway.
