As you are well news, there we a major problem with the racing surface at
Bangor Raceway this past racing season.
We realize that once the 1990 a started that it was impossible to do
any major work on the track and that your track people did the best job possible
under the conditions that they faced.
In order to get the track in proper condition for the 1991 race meet it should
have the work completed before the coming winter. Failure to do this will have a
detrimental effect on the 1991 racing season.
I = sure chat 766 will beas_cooperative in this matter as you have been
with us in the past.
S cerely;

Bangor, Maine 04401
Dear Mr. Theriault:
It was
nmeeting with you, your staff, Mr. LUro and Mr. Cleo-
denningtoelook at and evaluate the Bangor Raceway half -mile
track.
Mr. Luro was of great assistance in helping to provide the exact
measurements and specifications of your track. These are 88 turns
and 58 straightaways with an overall 10 foot slope from north to
south which compliments the existing drainage system.. The facility
is level from east to west.
My recommendations for the rehabilitation of your race track are
as follows:
a. Remove and save 1500+ yards of existing stone dust to
the outside. (I saved 8000 tons of stone dust at Truro
Raceway in Nova Scotia.)
b. .Excavate inside 35 feet of track to a depth of approxi-
mately 1811.
C. Fill the 35' area to a depth of one foot with bank run
gravel or drainage material.
d. Put the salvaged stone dust and any additional needed
to build to a B" depth (1500 tons might need to be
added).
e. Grade and compact this to the new shape of an Euio-
track. I would suggest a new type of pylon,.hub rail..
which is treated styrofoam fit into a PVC receptacle --
Cost 52000.

f. scarify entire track and reshape to blend together the
new and the old.
A ballpark estimate at this time, based upon my experience of
working with 80 different tracks, would be $100,000 tops, although
this figure could be considerably less. I could return for a
three-day period and, working with Mr. Luro, I would provide a
ore accurate figure. This period would be for my basic fee of
$750 per day plus expenses which would be part of the total project
cost.
This work should be done within the next few weeks to ensure
project completionbefore cold weather sets in.
