No, we can skip the crappy shows on speed and watch the real racing at our local track. Here are some numbers to chew on, just a real rough estimate, 150 local tracks run every week in the USA, an average of 1500 fans in the stands, 225,000 fans attending races at non televised events every week. I think my estimates are low on both tracks and fans in attendance but it's still more than people attending tennis or golf tournaments a week, I guess the tv coverage for them is because they have balls.
