The stands on the right side of the track looking down track is for VIPs only, not your regular paying race fan unless you pay a lot more to rub elbows with the elites At least it was the last time I raced their a long time ago
The stands use to be full only when the loud cars where on the track on Fridays, Saturdays or Sundays
The rest of the times most of the spectators where in the pits making it hard for us Sportmen racers to move around our cars or in the pits

CABster .... Jsta about 22 minutes ago(at the two hour point of the rebroadcast) there was a clear way overhead shot of the stands during funny car ... Take a look at the stands THEN

I have no way of looking at anything, replaying it, on T.V that isn't playing when I'm watching it
As I said if the loud car where running the stands would have ben a lot more crowded or full than when there not running
I watch most of the finals this afternoon, I didn't focus on how many spectators where in the stands I'm sad to see Robert Height not win again but I am glad to see the Kalitta team win the funny car championship along with Matt Smith winning in Pro Stock bike and Tanner Grey in Pro Stock
I keep hoping for Doug Kallita to win a championship in Top Fuel
Maybe next year, hopefully
