We just returned from Florida. We watched the 4 nights of WoO at Volusia, the 2 nights of USAC at Volusia and the 2 nights of USAC at BRP/Ocala. The truth of the matter is the poorest attended night at the WoO races at Volusia (Wednesday) was better attended than any of the USAC nights at either track. This is not to say that the crowds for the USAC races were bad, just that the crowds for the WoO crowds were better. Volusia set an all time attendance record on Saturday night of the WoO show, and announced that they stoped selling tickets with people still in line.
There were commercials on radio and mentions on TV about the WoO races at Volusia, and a banner being towed by a plane up and down the beach. There was little to no promotion of the USAC races that I heard or saw.
