Thats a good problem to have for the track at $45 a ticket. I also noticed that when attending the Kings Royal, there are more younger fans there. Younger fans seem attracted to the WoO and winged racing. Non wing racing seems to attract an older veteran crowd. Hope that can change in the future. Tracks need younger fans for sure.
I don't go to late model races, so I am sure you guys are right. I went to Joker's Wild night at Eldora. I thought the age demographic was pretty close to what I normally see. Saw the Outlaws a few years ago at Plymouth, and were saying we felt young in that crowd.
