COTA simply wanted too much for their facility and Thermal was a steal of a deal. Maybe they can get back to the table.

Are COTA financials that bad right now?

In my personal opinion, yes. Tremendous build price and tremendous Bernie Tax made it very expensive to begin with. The track management has experienced ummm exceptionally high turnover , but not surprising when most of the people at the top don't have a background in Motorsports. Go check out their website ..
Factor in the loss of a serious source of money from the city of Austin /state (alleviated by a favorable reduction in the tax appraisal ) and major issues like flooding they've had a rough start ..
