If the "race fans are always right" we would still have races Wilkesboro, IRP, Rockingham and Memphis and we would be going to Darlington twice a year. I'm still not fully convinced we'll see a change, despite how much I want it to happen

Btw, if your on Twitter you can tweet your opinions and "have your voice heard" on Bristol changes by tweeting to @HawkSMI

I was just thinking there is no other sport that listens to the fans like NASCAR and the track owners do. We wanted to get rid of 2 car drafts done, we want race car that look like the street car done, and we want Bristol back to the way it was most likely done. Gotta give NASCAR and everyone else credit they listen unlike the NFL who is so concerned with ruining the league they have no time to listen to the fans.

To be fair, those changes were made before NASCAR really started to give a crap what the fans thought.

Well the NFL has the luxury of most stadiums being 99% sold out by season ticket holders, big corporations, PSL's and the like. People who're already so financially committed to those games, the NFL players could start wearing leotards & tutu's and the people would still show up to watch. It gives NFL teams license to basically do whatever they want, regardless of possible fan outrage.

Nascar tracks have some of these finanically committed fans as well, but nowhere even close to the proportion of NFL fans. Just look at Bristol for example. The season ticket holders & suite holders aren't the ones complaining. It's the people who've shown up in their motor home for the past 20 years, camp outside the track for a week, and then take their grandstand seats for race day.
