Indy doesn't come to Charlotte's mile and a half oval anymore for that very reason. That and too many rednecks don't get open wheel racing for some reason.

Archaic it is.
To your knowledge, has any sanctioning body or anyone challenged the fact that a CONCRETE WALL awaits Indy oval participants....its crazy risk and dangerous in an open wheel race car....and not that much safer in categories like NASCAR, as these cars are much more rigid and transmit so much more G's to the driver.
