Sept. 28, 2009 1:36 p.m. | The State Fair Park board of directors conditionally approved the racing promotions contract for Historic Mile LLC at the end of its 3 1/2-hour meeting Monday.

Historic Mile must meet a Thursday deadline to have money in escrow for NASCAR to meet the provisions of the sanction agreement for 2010. If it does, board chairman Sue Crane has been given the board's OK to execute the contract.

Tony Machi and Jim Beaudoin, the two known partners in Historic Mile, met with the board in closed session for nearly an hour but were not at the meeting for the unanimous vote.

Machi fielded several questions procedural questions before he and Beaudoin left, saying as he has previously that he could not discuss the source or sources of his group's financial backing.

Then Machi declined to comment further, "especially with these two guys here," referring to brothers Frank and Dominic Giuffre, who have expressed interest in returning as promoters. Machi and Frank Giuffre have had a public disagreement on details of discussions they have had recently regarding the track" NewsWatch - JSOnline
