In thinking about it, many of the National Event tracks have a large area available on the spectator side of the track. At the limited number of NASCAR races I have attended all of the venders, T-shirt and sovenier sales, etc have been located somewhere other than the pit area. Doesn’t seem to affect the traffic or sales of their items. What if at the tracks that could accommodate all of these things on the spectator side of the track moved manufacturers midway and the other vendors to that side of the track freeing up a large amount of pit space. Iknow you would still need the food and drink vendors on the pit side but I don’t see much downside to this. What do you think? Mike McMahan 2543 H/SA



You say that you understand the space, expense and noise issues. The one thing that you didn't mention, and is the most important if not the only reason the nhra won't raise the quotas, is time. If they wanted to raise quotas, they'd have to find more time in a day, or add another day to the events. TIME, is the problem.
