Thanks for the reminder!
Racing is truly a universal sport and there are a lot of local tracks that deliver a solid racing product.
I have a nephew racing SuperStock at a local track in Minnesota, clay/dirt track. They still pack ‘em in Saturday nights.
Love racing but wouldn’t give two hoots in hell for a ringside seat at any NASCAR event. Way too much money involved and way too much ego, and they have priced themselves out of sponserships etc. Give me a dirt track, and couple of guys fighting in the pits with their teammates all watching, instead of some lilly-liver driver jetting away from the race in his private aircraft. Ugh!!
