Most of the people I ask say its too EXPENSIVE! Expecially the World of Outlaws, but they will go to that because its the WoO's.
All we have at Haubstadt now (our local scene) is high dollar shows once or twice a month that cost $20 to get in the stands and $30 for pits (where the action is at) and most people don't want to spend that kind of money (for husband & wife).
Once people get set in a routine that they like to do every week thats what they look forward to, but when there is no local racing, every week, people find other things to do and before you know it racing isn't the 1st thing they want to do. They find other sporting events and athletes to support.
Taking qualifications out of the program is also taking valuable time away from the fans and drivers not to mention excitement from the line ups.
Thats what I found out.
