OK...so the general aim of the One Open Wheel Series is to surpass NASCAR in tearms of popularity and become the permier racing series in North America. But, what does NASCAR have that OW racing does not? I cannot honestly see what makes NASCAR more popular. Sure, it's had names like Richard Petty, Dale Earnhart and Jeff Gordon but what makes them "bigger" than Mario Andretti, Micheal Andretti, A.J Foyt, Alex Zanardi or Al Unser? I watched some of that NASCAR race on EuroSport which was on after CART...what I watched was not quality racing at all. CART on the other hand, had an excellent race with the German 500. All three of this year's IndyCar races have featured better racing as well than what I have seen in NASCAR so far.
So what makes NASCAR popular, and how can we better it?
