1. Stock and Superstock doesn't have very many fans. You can't count the 45 relatives that happened to be sitting there.
2. New fans aren't paying to get into the gate to watch Stock and Superstock. They check out Dragracecentral. Just because a few stayed in their seats after the pro's were done at Indy doesn't mean anything.
3. 95% of the new cars that have been built are built by present Stock/Superstock racers and a few Comp guys.
4. "Win on Sunday, Sell on Monday" - That must explain why the Camaro has sold more units over the last three months than both the Mustang and Challenger and is in a dead heat with the Mustang for 2009.
5. If anything, stock/super stock engine builders are being hurt. Their clients that usually come back every year for a tune-up are going to their closest chassis dyno with a laptop in their hands with their new cars.
6. NMCA is the king at "cars people can relate to". Go ask the owners over there how their tickets sales are going.
