The crowd wasn't quite as bad as Motorhead's buddy said, but it was spotty at best. I was surprised to see such a short car count, but the few that were there put on a good show, all things considered. Racers are an odd bunch and who knows why we do what we do, and go where we go. I drag race and it was a night off for us. I have raced 1 time this year and the class i race had a good car count. I help promote a series at my local track, and i hold my breath every month, hoping for good turnouts. i can only imagine the angst a true promoter feels depending on us to make a living. It was a heck of an opportunity for a less experienced driver to get some good laps under their belt at what I always felt was a pretty intimidating track when i was racing sprint cars. Hopefully the car counts will bounce back. Sitting in the stands sure isn't as much fun as sitting in the seat, and every time we go watch it gives me sprint car withdrawals.
