I wonder why they didn't buy a stake in the TV rights? Maybe they didn't see the potential of TV coverage as a revenue stream?

$100,000 back then would hav been double what they were paying the top drivers.
Was also interesting before Bernie stepped in the tracks were making a fortune from the racing.Each race was a seperate event,the track paid the teams to turn up,the track had TV rights for only for their race.
