Maybe other track operators will take a clue from Norwalk and give free tickets to the spectators. At least they would sell some consessions to people that would not be there spending any money at all otherwise. Div 4 points races might have thirty or so, the stands look pretty empty. I found an old picture of Pete Perry's old Vega on the startng line at a Div 4 points race at La Place, LA from the '70s. Pete said "look at the people in the stands!" But, remember top Fuel and Pro Stock used to run the div races then. The people didn't vacate the stands after the fuel cars ran back then, either. Different world now, different spectators. Only watch the noise and fire. The ones you talk to, for the most part, aren't very knowlegable.
They probably watch professional wrestling too.
