You wonder if EVERY track WANTS this though? At some point you gota wonder if all this instant info affects ticket and even video feed sales...

Casey Shuman, WRG and Xtreme non wing series out of the gate...

Impressive

It was a good show. Hope tonight is as good. It was cold but we've endured worse at Volusia in the past.

It's only one night but I would concur that if this show is any indication gong forward USAC has legitimate competition in the wingless sprint division. As a spectator I'm concerned with the overall health of wingless :27: sprint car racing and if this new division enhances the genre' overall then we're all for it. Nice job right out of the box, Casey!

I used to think so, but I think this has become more of an excuse for a smaller crowd than anything else. I don't think this deters or keeps anyone from actually going to the track. The people that are content with seeing live feeds and/or periodic standings and results were probably never really motivated to go to the track anyway. The things that get actual race fans to show up in person don't translate well through a twitter feed or video screen.

Winged sprints at Volusia had an SRO crowd Saturday and I saw people Saying the late models at East Bay had bigger crowds than they can remember. Anyone arguing streaming is hurting attendance is making excuses for bad promotion.

I guess I was watching something different, because the race I watched, the USAC guy’s made the show!

Car count of 37.... not bad at all
I wonder how many will show up for USAC races?
