Yeah I read your whole post. Last nights races were both poorly attended. I was comparing an inexpensive thing to go to that had lots of people in past events. Much like racing, why was it poorly attended? Probably a combination of events, weather, economy,401k’s loosing thousands of dollars in people’s accounts etc.
To compare with your mobbed WoO race, for comparison, I recently went to a car show on a Saturday morning that was mobbed. Cars and Coffee. Not held every weekend. Yet some weekly cruise ins on Friday and Saturday nights all 3 close by to each other haven’t had as many cars as in past years, and these are every week, and all 3 different ones are free to get into.Weather was perfect for all 3 I’ve mentioned.
So why is that? Both have their own followers,and I’ve done both. Races cost money for admission, but cruise ins are free to come look at? Some are mobbed, some are average,and some poorly attended.
