I was at the race in Kansas and there weren't that many empty seats. This shot is from my seats in the first row of the tower at the exit to pit road looking back at the last seats at the last section of seats at the exit to turn 4. The center section was full and my area was quite full also.



Yes, I know, there are some empty seats. But this is not the premier seating area and it's not like some other tracks where whole sections are virtually empty.

If NASCAR had small seating capacities like baseball or football - they'd be sold out.

We had a great time at the races and Kansas Speedway is a very fan friendly track!

IF things are SO ROSY for NASCAR, WHY are 45,000 seats being ELIMINATED at Daytona? I've got a couple of friends that go to Bristol religiously. They had NO PROBLEM getting tickets, where it used to be sold out for YEARS in advance. One race DOES NOT indicted a profitable season. What about Dover? HALF EMPTY........for BOTH races. Your answer?
