It makes for good TV, I guess, if you go in for that sort of thing, but it ain't racing. The crowd is there to see the carnage, and hopefully get on TV. When the "new" wears off, it'll fade away and be forgotten.

Alan have you ever been to one? You are way off base. No way it can be fixed. The race in Seattle was a kick in the butt. Beats the hell out of shoe polish. The fans proved that. Thats the kind of fan support S&S/S had before shoe polish.
