I agree. I started racing in 1991 and pretty much every track was grass, with the odd dirt track. It was bloomin' marvellous. I stopped racing in 2000, and re-started again in 2010. In those ten years, all the tracks we used to race on had either closed, gone indoors, or turned to Astro. I would really like to see a return to plain grass tracks where the conditions change through out the day as more and more cars run over it.
For me, carpet and high grip Astro tracks are a little 'soul less'. That's just my opinion. Probably swayed by a little nostalgia.
