Mark,  you are 100% correct on everything in the show except for the crowd. I was on the infield and when you look up it was about 30% full. When you look left or right at a crowd, it seems more, but not from the infield.  It's sad, and I bet the DTD TV was not a big sell because it was pretty expensive. The drive in was about 60% full. 

Pits were $50 Friday, $75 Saturday, and $75 Sunday.

The race played out with plenty of drama only due to the amount of cautions at the end. Why have a start zone? The leader, the last six restarts, started at least 50 to 100 feet before it and was warned over the two way everytime and even jumped the last one, with no penalty. It was pretty bad and I'm not saying that because I'm with Stew, but don't make a rule and not enforce it. 

All and all, as a long distance race, I give it a C-. They allow radios, but the lack of communication from the race director to the driver, really hurt this race with the line up issues.
