Daytona Motorsports group which was/is owned by the France family bought ama in 08 or 09. That group single-handedly ruined professional motorcycle roadracing in the US by telling the four major manufacturers that factory teams weren't welcome in the series. They assumed that the NASCAR model...

Nascar killed the daytona 200.

Looks fun. Sponsor suites include free food and drinks. The last few years at amway arena you could buy a suite for 15 or 20k and it includes 20 tickets. They don't include food or drinks. A guy I know bought a suite for 5 games but it took a while to sell all the tickets and only made about...

True. One daytona, casino and they own land in Daytona.

He's right. Doesn't hurt to ask. Last year I bought tickets in the Daytona 500 club presidents row and asked if I could get a hot pass. If I paid in cash they would hook me up with a hot pass and I got one.

Don't know about other sports but rsn for basketball is up. The final 4 ratings were up from last year. The championship will most likely be an all-time low.

Vince Martin article should come out in the next few days. Here's what John Saunders said. "TV viewership for the historic 20th running of the Daytona 500 proved once again why it is the premier and most significant motorsports event in the world. Despite a decline in rating, the event captured...

At speedweeks arca had less than 12k in stands, shootout less than 30k, duels less than 35k, trucks less than 30k and xfinity about 45k. Attendance was down for all races except for the 500. I should have a clearer picture by the end of the week.

Last year I was told monster was going to step up their activation game in the 2nd half and in 2018. So far it looks the same except for maybe the Hollywood monster report.

I keep hearing 2020 will be a big year. New track announcements and some "retirings" aka fired. Bubba hardly had anything at Daytona.

At the 500 they couldn't even keep pace with the draft after 6 laps. The 23 and 00 engines sound different from the rest of the field.

Fontana's newspaper said crowd was lower than in previous years.

This guy thinks nascar is done. https://929thegame.radio.com/articles/nascar-dying-and-they-have-no-idea-how-save-it?src=rss

People would rather watch it live. If you watch it live you have to watch the commercials. Next year is the year if ratings and attendance don't improve 2020 could look different.

Just notice they took down the turn 4 stands.

My professor thinks 2020 will be interesting for tv contracts. He thinks networks will concentrate more on streaming rights than tv rights. Will leagues sell tv contracts to one network and streaming rights to another company like YouTube or will it be a bundle? He thinks the days of mega tv...

Why not in Miami? Have it on a Tuesday or Wednesday. You could have activities at Bayside marketplace, have a Q&A at Adrienne Arsht Center, take a parade lap and burnout but the American Airlines arena and have the awards at one of the hotels there.

Forgot about what happened at the 500. I felt bad for the parents. They brought their 2 girls to the race. One looked about 16 and the other 13. They stayed for the first 40 laps and half was spent on their phones and they got up and left. I thought they were going to the bathroom but I was...
