Some sports analysts and racing fans feel that NASCARs popularity has reached and that the sport of sputtering and on the outskirts of several years of gas. But the majority of NASCAR fans understand that they have no reason for concern.
The sport, the big Bill France, SR. started is alive and well. Big Bill may recognize not NASCAR of his grandson, Brian France, but he would understand it. He would understand that at the end of the day, has to be a dollar. And these days NASCAR, there are a lot of dollars to be made. He would also understand the drivers of NASCAR early years as Curtis Turner, fireball Roberts, junior Johnson, Joe Weatherly, Tim flock, Buck Baker, tiny Lund and even drivers such as David Pearson, Cale Yarborough, and a boy of Dale Earnhardt, SR. would a difficult time, NASCAR today.
While these drivers had immense talent for one or other reason, she would not today's NASCAR driver form fit have. You will be hard to deal with, not enough talk, and not enough good looking or sponsor friendly enough. Of course, Tony Stewart is one of its kind, and he made it. But then, Stewart has a few years ago. And he seems to permanent residence on NASCARS wrong side of the track have taken on board. And conditions change green flag in NASCAR, things and people, as fast as a pit stop.
To ensure that the popularity of NASCAR continues to be the best sport, took the 60-year-old officials a year sport into a timely pit stop where they made some minor adjustments to last year's TV ratings and fan participation to repair sagging. The crew of the station under a theme have concentrated type for this season was one of the adjustments. Fans saw many of the older driver honored during ceremonies at the Daytona. And during their early escapades lovingly were reminded of today's drivers, including Stewart, that more "individualistic" on some of and turn off to imitate, episodes of this heroic driver, track would a fine and/or be for "actions are detrimental to the sport of NASCAR racing teams" exposed to.
"I think that he is back to about a month before the Daytona 500, NASCARS Chief, Brian France, reminded everyone that there are many changes in the sport that is why we wanted to appeal again to our core fan", said William Wanger, Fox Sports senior Vice President for research and programming. "I think that to set the tone for Daytona and the race."
Whatever the reason for "Citing the core-fan" were what, seems it worked. Rising TV ratings for the season 2008 to date seem to verify that the proclaimed second has most popular American sports, in addition to NFL football, yet reached its peak in popularity. Combine the NASCAR tinker and with the resurgence of the sport seems most popular driver, Dale Earnhardt, Jr. and NASCAR fine-tuning will be back on the track.
The question of whether Earnhardt Jr. return to competitive form an important factor in the ratings boost, Fox was Wanger, said, "NASCAR 35 to 40 rated stars that race where only one each week, unlike Tiger Woods handful tournaments playing golf has." "I think there was a curiosity factor with his fans, which helps, but NASCAR is not dependent on of driver."
You combine popular drivers such as Jimmy Johnson, Tony Stewart, Kyle and Kurt Busch, Kevin Harvick, Jeff Burton, Carl Edwards, Kasey Kahne, Ryan Newman, Denny Hamlin, Jeff Gordon and Michael Waltrip with the competition from week to week for the race for the chase and immediate drama constantly is developing Sprint Cup. This makes for the ultimate reality TV.
Of course, helped Earnhardt Jr.'s personal drama of the DEI, his father, the late Dale Earnhardt, SR., the team built the drive for Rick Hendrick and team with rival Jeff Gordon, left to fuel of NASCAR fame.
Yes, NASCAR has changed much in 60 years. It has with the time change, to grow, what it is today. And whether NASCAR fans like what has been or is not, at the end of the day, they must be aware that NASCAR, such as football or baseball, an entertainment business, which must show a profit is to survive. And to show a profit there must be enough to draw fans on race tracks, popular but perhaps more importantly is his; It needs to draw the fans on their televisions.
And so far this season has.
