I’m still a die hard NASCAR fan. I haven’t missed a Daytona 500 since 1969 and still attend 10 to 12 races a year (that includes supporting races). I’ll admit that after Earnhardt’s death and the introduction of the COT I lost some interest. I like the more “Stock Appearing” that they are running today. Especially the ZL1 Camaro! Just 85 days until the 2019 Daytona 500!
As far as the grandstands being half empty my personal opinion is that fans got used to watching the races in HD on their LARGE flat screens during the 2008 recession and just don’t travel like they used too.
