Less shows with more fans and cars is the answer for now….or at least while we weather the storm of the next 2 1/2 years.
You're already seeing tracks scheduling back. Adding classes to both try to get fans and purse paid. I-96 said they lost on the FAST/Boss show and have been making Social media threats, Without 2000 fans have sprints, without 1500 fans we won't be racing. Normally Id say, Well they're not promoting good enough, But clear to me, People are skipping enterainment dollars in order to pay for necessities.

If you think this last only two and a half years, Add two and a half too it. Right now jobs are still strong, but when the spending stops or is limited to necessities. A whole lot of jobs are going bye bye. We haven't even started. It's the perfect storm for deep recession or worse. no finger pointing or name calling. But anyone thinks we're even close to going in the right direction needs to look deeply at what's happening.
