No, the public here tend not to get American racing fully. Even when CART was "Simply The Best", you were met with snobbery from basically everyone for liking it.

Let's face it, if you are not F1 in this country you are unlikely to be a success on TV. And if you are American, you have even less of a chance. Sad really.

NASCAR is particularly hard because you really need to invest effort to get to know it properly. These days people want to know everything NOW.
