They just started to demo the suites at Charlotte so I guess they are going to do the same at Atlanta.

Tear down enough stands till we "sell out" again...

Sounds like a perfectly good plan!

The art of deception. Like Cup drivers no being eligible for a Xfinity or Truck Championship. Instead of fix the problem, cover it up.

Band-aid easy fixes instead of long-term gains via actual sacrifices are The American Way.

BUT CUP DRIVERS IN LOWER SERIES PUT FANS' BUMS IN THE STANDS, etc.

In my opinion its actually a pretty brilliant move. A half empty race track doesnt sell. It looks like a dying sport. You take down half of those grandstands and boom you've sold out, its a hot ticket, come see the big show while tickets last!!

Its all about image when it comes to corporations and sponsorship and money. If something looks good on TV, it will sell. A sold out race track looks great on TV.

I like how no one's blaming the real reason for the decline of NASCAR. The car sucks!

ChrisTRD · PostPosted: Tue Jan 20, 2015 5:07 pm

What? The cars are good, the rules package is what needs improvement.

Andre · PostPosted: Tue Jan 20, 2015 5:31 pm

^^^ Yep - the cars now look great, and they're in a spot where they can tinker with the rules package enough to get the racing to improve. Making the cars harder to drive is a good start, but they still need to work on a few things.

The last thing they need is to change the car again and have us back to square one.

Minus the HP reduction they are headed in the right direction.

I'm going to be pessimistic about '15, however.

I'll wait until after the first 1/4 of the season to judge.

Complete oppersite of what the 'drivers package' was they wanted then, oh well, maybe they'll learn before all the tracks have to resort to a single tier 'bleacher' (I think that's what you guys call small grandstands) at the start/finish line only to claim races are sell outs.
