Attendance is still impressive, but the decline in the demand and eagerness to get 500 tickets, along with qualifying attendance has diminished significantly.
Whether it was CC or the IRL's fault, the result is the same.
As with tv figures, the numbers dont lie, its depressing.
2008 hopefully is the first step to a better future.
Whether that involves option tyres or not, Indycool.
