If you have not noticed NASCAR is suffering form the same issue. Priced themselves out of their target market. Look at the stands during a race. Heck Indy was almost empty when they were there, as has been most every race they have run this year. I don't care why they come, just stating that is part of the allure of heads up stuff. Carnage and mayhem, couple that with cheap tickets and good promotion and the stands are full.

Now run those very same cars at an NMCA race and they stands are nowhere near as full. The reason, they aligned with the NHRA a few years ago and called it NHRA Unleashed. Ticket prices are significantly higher at NMCA events. We run NMCA and while there are a few fans, it is not what it should be. Thay have also chased away their fair share of racers for various reasons, tech being a BIG one.
