Fan count / economy

[zoom]

I keep hearing in the news that the economy is making it's way back. I heard a bunch of people on this board say that the economy has a lot to do with the fan count or lack of fan count at the tracks. Also had an effect on the car count as well.

 

If the economy is coming back, South Texas is doing better with new industry coming in (such as Toyota) what do you guys forcast for this year?

 

Or will the track management keep fans/racers away?

 

Or perhaps the excessive number of touring classes?

 

Or maybe because the tracks don't run common rules?

 

What are your thoughts on this as we are fixing to enter a new year?

 

Happy Holidays Everyone
