Being Bowyer fans, our family has an obvious bias, but my 10 year old son said something that really reflected on the level of BS and bureaucracy that has engulfed the sport. He vowed never to watch racing again because he thinks ‘its dumb that they’re still refereeing the race three days after its over.”

NASCAR is complaining about losing ‘Fan Base’.

I have follwed NASCAR for almost 50 years.

Now that I am retired on a fixed income, pay TV isn’t in the budget.

We get the first few races free on Fox....
Then we have to wonder what channel the rest of the races will be on & if we can con a neighbor to watch the event.

After a couple of years of doing that, I am losing interest.

Not much of a reward to me for all those years of being part of the ‘fan base’.

I hve a friend who moved within 40 miles of the new Kansas Speedway. He would dearly love to go to the Sunday/Sprint Cup race......ONLY.

He said they are only selling tickets for the entire weekend- & that the cost is well over $100 per ticket.
He won’t be in the stands, either.
