>>13443924Covid drove an uptick for motorsport in general but that only brought them back to like 2/3 of the way through their death spiral. Well it didn't entirely help them that said uptick was heavily driven by it being a right wing sport that was active when other sports weren't but NASCAR itself immediately doing an embarrassing job of trying to BLM pander. Still even if your numbers are actually shit, as long as number go up everyone is suddenly excited.
Now say MotoAmerica was the first pro sport anywhere to start back up during the 'Rona, and while it is generally literally who, they are not fucking around with pretending to be liberal, didn't fuck around with any politics and just focused on having as little government restriction possible and have ridden an actual wave of serious growth out of it (although they are still fuck nowhere compared to AMA road racing 25 years ago)
