From USA TodaY:

" The crowd didn't measure up to the event's luster. NASCAR's estimated attendance was 140,000, but the 275,000 seat grandstands appearred less than full. The Brickyard's listed crowd has fallen by 100,000 since a tire debacle in 2008 "

The 140,000 attending may or may not have included the RV area and infield parking. Either way, whatever NASCAR is contemplating to reverse the downward trend sure needs immediate attention. Won't have the words exactly right, " it's easier to maintain/retain the favorable status than gaining back that which has been lost "
