during the commentary, they said the track of land on which the race track sits has been sold .... they have kept 90 or so acres to build a short track .... they also reported that today's race is sold out
Spring has sprung. Get out and shoot your Henry

Re: 2023 NASCAR Season
Kyle Busch wins it !!
I figured that the Childress/Busch combo was going to be dominate and so far so good.
Almost won it last week and won it this week.

Re: 2023 NASCAR Season
congrats to Richard Childress Racing for taking the win with their No 8 Chevy .... I was happy to see Chase Elliot bring his No 9 Chevy home second

I've always been a fan of his, he is one heck of a driver.
Congrats to him and RCR.

Re: 2023 NASCAR Season
There Nascar goes again. Unless 100's of people all went for a Hot Dog at the same time, there were plenty of empty seats. Unless some were sold in advance and people just didn't show up, possible.

Re: 2023 NASCAR Season
Sometimes they will black the race out if they are not sold out. This makes the network buy the seats to broadcast the race.Cowboy Gun Fan wrote: ↑Sun Feb 26, 2023 8:32 pmThere Nascar goes again.

Re: 2023 NASCAR Season
Sold out is more media BS, they don't even know the last time they filled the stands.
Probably over ten years, Millennials ain't buying tickets.
the sport is dying. Young people don't give two hoots about it.
Bristol, used to be one of the hardest tickets to get, I've been there a few times.
I couldn't tell ya the last time it was packed.
Probably the last time was when Tenn and VA played a football game there.

Re: 2023 NASCAR Season
camera coverage showed that Daytona was packed last week .... per FOX, their TV coverage of Daytona was ranked as the most-watched show of the weekend..... camera coverage yesterday was misleading .... as can be seen below, Auto Club Speedway bleachers are located between turn 4 and 1 .... the reason most background shots don't show people is simply because most of the track doesn't have bleachers .... those pictures showed a big crowd attendance estimates show about 50,000 .... TV ratings released this morning show 4.57 million household viewers on FOX

Re: 2023 NASCAR Season
I'm always curious on how many show up to races and the empty seats I saw yesterday were sky view camera shots looking down at the track and bleachers at the start and at various times during the race.
Fox couldn't tell how many of us antenna guys were watching or not, lol, but I'm sure their stats are pretty good estimates.

Re: 2023 NASCAR Season
the Cup and Truck series move to Las Vegas this weekend .... I'm really interested in seeing how Hailie Deegan does in Friday night's NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Race she drives the No 13 Ford F-150 for ThorSport Racing.... this season should tell if she has what it takes to move into the upper echelon group of drivers
