Yes and no. When government restrictions become so overbearing there is no possible compliance. Look at limerock. Track has been there forever and people are still moving next door and complaining. Nobody is going to approve a track, no matter how willing and able someone is to build it. Lawmakers should really be mandating tracks, like they have been with bikelanes. Sure, a minority use them, but it will improve the safety of everyone to have the racers in a designated area.

I bike lane doesn't require the same amount of maintenance, oversight, insurance etc.. People also bike to work, the store, appointments etc. A track is purely entertainment. Perhaps they should look for sponsors? Or perhaps these people couldn't afford to use a track or simply wouldnt.
