Series on life support? One year they had sold so many standing room only tickets at Lakeside the State Fire Marshall made them shut down ticket sales. I take my vacation to follow TNT every year and as has been said it is packed every where you go.
As for your later post about how Robert treats his fans.
I stopped at his car last year on the tour, just a fan. He talked to me a good twenty minutes about the car, the race that night, the track, You would have thought I was an old friend.
Last night at Creek County my wife and I stopped at his car to congradulate him. Again he started talking ot me about the car, the motor, even his plans on what he planned to do at Wheatland.
I get to wheatland tonite with my daughter walking down the pits, Robert was working on his car and saw me across the pit road , he stopped and waved at me and asked how I was doing. He then stopped what he was doing and started discussing how the track looked and just chatting.
THAT is how a class driver treats their fans and Why the fans at Lucas was going wild when he was doing his cage dance tonight.
Oh, and by the way, he did tell me why he was in Oklahoma and Missouri and not Indiana, next time you see him in person just ask him and he will have no trouble telling you.
