Nice whine, but if putting fans in the stands was the problem, they have only themselves to blame. First they ran on Saturday, then LPS came along, then they couldn't decide when to run...Fri? Sat? Sun?, then they cancel a couple of midseason races, then decide to run on Sunday, then not at all. Not a good way to build a fan and participant base. When you address the members of this board, you're talking to the drivers, car owners, and fans who support racing at ALL the area tracks. We hardly need lessons in economics. For sure none of the owners are getting wealthy at this and we fans know what it is to put $50+ (or $150+) fuel in a vehicle each weekend to go racing. What do you suppose it costs to come from WI, PA, or TX for fuel, lodging, food, tickets, etc.? How about coming from the west coast for the whole season?
