 While NASCAR has taken steps to improve its Sprint Cup events, there are a number of issues that paying customers still are unhappy with, such as the l-e-n-g-t-h of the 500 mile events.

It’s interesting that it appears NASCAR is listening intently to paying customers! Tandem racing at Daytona and Talladega is definitely not a fan favorite. For them to continue on with that dance partner routine surely would see fans continue getting turned off and watching something else on the old tube.

NASCAR TV ratings were up overall by the end of the season when things wound up at Homestead.
That’s a good sign.
Yet when will attendance figures at various tracks pick up, particularly at the 1-1/2 mile cookie-cutter 150,000 seat venues?
