You don't need a loyalty program....yet. What you badly need first is in-depth customer research: An understanding of who the customers are, who comes to the race course frequently and infrequently, and why, what their alternative entertainment selections are (where, when, cost, etc.), and if those customers have had pleasant or unpleasant experiences at the race course which might color their thinking.
