IMHO, NASCAR has gotten WAY too big for its britches! It's already bad enough
that fans are getting priced out of the stands, have to pay for the "premium"
content on NASCAR online, and drivers and teams are being priced out of
competition.
I remember when ESPN had the NASCAR contract but you could only get some of the
Busch races on ESPN2 so you were SOL if your cable company didn't carry that.
Let 'em keep it up and see how many of us break our NASCAR addiction. Remember
it's all about MONEY to the bigwigs and corporate sponsors, and WE FANS are
collectively in control of how much the market will bear.
BTW, I have found IRL to be a much more fan friendly venue. It's much like
Busch used to be, where the teams and drivers are more willing to make some time
for the fans.
