I think that this is the jist of the thread here. The show will more than likely needed to be sped up to draw more fans in.

Starters being tabled is an option. A good push truck crew is another option. What other options do we have? Throw them out there, IOW fans.

Without taking the thread off into Never-Never Land, I'll put this on the table: Pill draw beforehand for heat starting positions. No qualifying. Use passing points. The key here though is that you have to bring the fans up to speed real quickly and properly to keep them abreast of how passing points work and where every driver stands in points after their heat. Without that it would be like watching a basketball game and not knowing the score as the game progressed.

Me? I am fine the way it is, but I also understand that I have a lot of race watching miles under my belt and know the way it works.

But I also don't carry a phone so that leaves me out of mainstream America.
