NASCAR seems to be doing OK right now. They are racing and the TV viewer numbers are up about 8-10 percent above the pre virus numbers. They are loosing on the amount of spectators that are not at the racetrack each week. They seem to be keeping the sponsors happy with the good TV coverage.

That is one of the things that is hurting the NHRA. They have no TV revenue and virtually no good TV coverage. Right now the only have some sportsman racing going on and that is not going to keep their sponsors happy. Between what the sportsman and spectators bring in that's what pays the pros along with their sponsor money. No Race No Sponsor money.
