Re: Kurt Busch
I'll take a look at this from a different angle.
Take my wife for example. She likes drag racing and I'm her only hero. However, she's a HUGE fan of NASCAR which I'm not. I'm mean she's to the point of driving me nuts. She just loves Kasey Kane and the #9 car. She's got Kasey Kane P.J.'s, Kasey Kane calander, Kasey Kane drink glasses, Kasey Kane jacket, Kasey Kane this...Kasey Kane that... and the dude doesn't even drive a Dodge anymore so I'm sure she's going to go out and buy a bunch of Kasey Kane Ford stuff and bring it in to a Mopar only house.
Point is, If Kasey Kane drove a car down the 1320... good or bad, fast or slow, win or loose, my wife would be watching. She'd MAKE me purchase tickets for the both of us to go to the summer nat's. If some NASCAR drivers came over to NHRA, wouldn't you think their fans would also follow? My wife sure would. How many Danica Patrick IRL fans are now watching NASCAR?
