They haven’t been "stock" for 30 or more years, depending on your definition of "stock". They’ve really only had ticket sales problems for the past few years. I think one key thing was changing the schedule around all the time. There were traditional dates where people went to the race every year, Southern 500 for instance. When they changed the schedule, the tradition was broken. Nascar seemed to think they would sell out no matter what and the fans would follow along. Just shows how careful businesses should be about some of the loyalty things. In outboards it makes me think about certain name brands relabling import motors with their own name and asking customers to accept that they are the motors they expect. Short term profits for long term reputation decline.
