Loudon small crowd

[mishman]

I am a very casual Nascar fan - really only watch the NH race on TV but I was struck by how thin the crowd was yesterday. Has this happened in past years? Not even sure what a ticket costs to go but seeing that I hate traffic and crowds would rather watch from home. Just curious if Nascar is fading in popularity or if this is a sign of the economy not exactly firing on all cylinders for the middle class.
