I've also seen on here many many times people ask how to get more fans in the seats, more crowd, newer crowd...well broadcasting it via internet, cell phone, computer, tv isnt gonna do it. $150/year for Flo, or go to races and pay $20-$30 per race...people who dont have money to spend, easy choice, $150/year for basically anything you want except WoO...$20/race gets you 8 races, tops...as Charles said what's getting better? The internet? Sure isnt the overall picture.

I think real race fans are going to go to a race if they're able to, whether it's streamed or not. Streaming is a scapegoat that people want to use as an excuse for why people don't show up. Seeing a weekly show somewhere with local classes with few cars may have worked in the past, but in the 21st century, people have more options for what to do with their time, and if your track doesn't have much to offer, it's your fault nobody goes, not the fact that it's streamed. And I personally care a lot more about various traveling series now that I get to watch every race, compared to in the past when I only got to see them race once or twice a year.
