The lack of tv commercials promoting Indycar races has been nonexistent here in MA. I can't tell you how many races I've missed completely or happened to stumble on after the race started because I had no idea that there was going to be a race. Not a good business model!
Why anyone would want to go to NASCAR at this time baffles me. It has to be a money grab for fielding a mid-pack program. Nascar does everything possible not to show the stands during races because there usually half-empty.
With the Andretti family's USAC background, I would think that it would be a better way to go.
