    Why is this race not a rousing success?

    Open wheel racecars on NoCal and a classic twisty...yet attendance ratings and fan interest have continually been soft

    Not high-brow enough for the people with money and not low-brow enough for the NASCAR set????

    does the time of year hurt it in that area?

    How does NASCAR do there??

    The track is one turn after another. No straights to speak of where they can stretch their legs and outbreak an opponent. You could say it is Mikey Mouse for lack of a better term.

    NoCal is the home to the 3 top sellers of Toyota Prius
