One thing that might help with this is to change up the runnning order. Run a pro class then a sportsman class etc. maybe some would sit and watch. If you had some better sportsman announcers that could educate and make it interesting some new sportsman fans might be developed. But the way they are doing it now it won’t happen.

The present announcers are the best, Alan Reinhart, Bob Unkefer, Brian Lohnes, Bruno Massel,(Lewis Bloom( for some reason I like the stats he has plus he sounds good lol), Warren Evans. SCHEDULING IS THE iSSUE. The fans understand the chase in handicap racing they are not dumb. The TV schedule is the main reason schedule is screwed up all the time someone thinks that live racing is the cats meow

I don't like live racing it sucks> I liked the delay then no pressure to have a set schedule for live tv Just my 57 years of racing opinion LOL at me still racing until I forget who I am
