Got this from a fellow journalist today...

Looked at the website (http://www.ontrackonline.com/) and found only a
single page stating "This website is temporarily closed while we redesign
it. Please check back again."

Now a total shutdown of a racing website for "redesign" in the middle of the
season is bizarre enough to suggest that if you check back there may be
nothing there.

I'll miss OT. It was a good publication -- doing a good job of living up to
its motto of being the "racing magazine of record." I have all the print
issues, sorry not to be getting more.
