interesting topic. the decline of weekly racing started a while ago (20-ish years) and will likely continue. not a horrible thing. the increase of specials is great for fans. look at the amount of fantastic events that have emerged the last 20 years. kids that want to be race car drivers have no time to race locally they have to advance more quickly today. operating a race track every week is too difficult for any human. racing will survive its got too many people hooked
