The track doesn’t care what racers want. Because racers don’t make the track money.
How many of you, spend money at the track on conssesions, and suvoniers?
I’d bet you pack a cooler with cold drinks, and some sandwiches, instead of paying $12 for greasy fries burger and drink. I used to bring a small cooler in the trunk with a few drinks, and a sandwich or two. Only went to “ test and tune” just to make a few passes in my car.
I didn’t make the track money.
What makes the money, is spectators in the stands. People that will buy food, drinks, t shirts, hats, etc.
If a lot of spectators came to the track to see clown riding unicycles juggling bowling pins go down the track, they would have those events.
Doesn’t mater what the racers want. It matters what the people who buy stuff from the track want. That is what keeps them in business, and what packs the stands right now, is 1/8 mile racing.
