A Nascar Survey

[StandOnIt]

Pretty interesting recent poll, they had almost 1500 responses. Here are some of the more interesting to me, others are in the link below:

age breakdown of survey participants

I'm right there with the majority.

Two things jump out at me.

1. The participation in the survey skews quite young. At least 87% were under 34 years old, and about 95% under 44. This obviously could not be considered a representative sample of the NASCAR fanbase at large.

2. Yet these respondents still claim to prefer the 'classic' full season points championship format (a scheme that hasn't been in use for most of their lifetimes), and show a strong dislike of playoffs and eliminations. These are essentially the demographics of fans the newer formats were proposed to attract.

The one that caught my eye was that the Elimination system was both the second-highest 'Most Enjoyed' AND the highest 'Least Enjoyed'.

yeee ep. The much maligned millennial's appear to have similar opinions as the older fans

IDK if you call that skewed or wtf? But the Winston Cup point system hold pretty true in both

For anyone interested, this was an online poll conducted on the NASCAR subreddit. Lets give some credit shall we?

Let's look at it another way, then. Over a third of respondents said was their least favorite, and almost 80% preferred something else.

Yet NBC is certain that nonstop PLAYOFF IMPLICATIONS! is the formula for success.

Also important have been the band aids Nascar have applied to the playoff's. Although it seems the latest version is the most liked (new version) playoff system, fans didn't like all of the changes over the years..diminished the importance maybe?

And then there are us 75 and older fans that don't count.
