Viewership is going to continue to drop and those that in the past had faithfully attended every race in their area are going to slowly stop attending any racws.
How horrific when a fiery crash occurs! What are they thinking???!
NASCAR needs competition from real Americans.
unless they can go flying off turn one like a slot car of my youth I am not interested...
if they do, I’d like a seat at the start/finish line please.
I’m not really a big racing fan, but it seems to me if the cars are just as fast, and the races are just as close and exciting, people will want to see it. It’s not so much about the car, it’s more about the racing.
I was in negotiations with a track for a corporate sponsorship with my employer when the president of NASCAR stopped a race to lecture the viewers on racial issues.
Negotiations stopped and so did I. I haven’t watched a race since.
I can see EV’s doing well in drag racing, at a 1/4 mile distance. But refueling and frequency of tire changes? The car race would be competing with the National Paint Drying Finals.
Imagine the fires when the electric cars crash.
They cannot be put out.
Who ever is running NASCAR needs to be fired.
No one wants to hear electric motors go hmmmmmmm
This would be slot car racing.
FTA: it is also committed to decarbonizing its operations and reducing its own carbon footprint to zero across its core operations by 2035 through electrification and innovative solutions.
I was over at my friends shop today, Nelson Racing Engines, and I don’t think there is any EV race car that can out perform his engines.
