Featured Question
In Deep Throttle's Postseason
Thoughts, it was mentioned that perhaps one of the reasons for waning TV ratings is that there
are too many races, and the casual fan, not able to keep up, instead throws his hands up and gives
up trying to follow the sport. Do you agree or disagree that a too long season hurts CART trying
to attract/retain new fans because of this saturation theory?
Isn't it funny how ABC/ESPN are showing 20 out of 22 races live this year according to your
CART schedule? I think its great that Fox took NASCAR off their hands, now we get the races we
want, when we want them, LIVE!!!!! THANKS FOX.

I disagree that the racing fan can't follow all of the races. How many out there (and you know
who you are) tape all the races and play them over in the winter months? Personally I'd watch CART
if it was on every Sunday and still not get tired of it.

No!!!!! A longer season is much harder on the teams, their budget and crew members it is great
for the fans. The only problem I see is falling into the football season.

It pisses me off the way ESPN/ABC treated CART last year, hopefully with FOX taking NASCAR off
their hands ESPN/ABC can devote 100% of their time to CART like it was in the past, instead of
cuting it short to go to a freaking golf game

It's not so much the number of races as it is the coverage and the marketing of it. CART would
do well to buy an extra half hour or and hour to have a pre-race recap and post race celebrations.
