THIS is all the racers that are paying the entry fee at the gate care about, not spectators in the stands, not the concessions stand, not a barbecue and not live music.

Divisionals will not be great again!
I disagree and think this opinion is shortsighted. I go to the races to have fun. Many of the suggestions put forward are aimed at improving the racer and spectator experience. Done in good measure this should translate into improved proitability for track owners. Most of us also care about sustainability of the sport. Making events more profitable is the best way to secure our future.
