This will be a difficult year for MotoAmerica. It might be a make or break year. That aside, I am sure the racing will be good. It just about always is, which is why it's so damn frustrating they can't get a stable broadcasting deal.
Well, besides NASCAR, that's true for most motorized sport here in ' America, it seems.
We seem to be a stick and ball watching Nation.
It's been rumored a Professional Poker game will draw more tv watchers than a National Supercross.
That being said, from what I hear, MotoAmerica had good tv ratings last year. Only NASCAR beat them
in total views, here in the States, as far as Motorsports goes.
Myself, I'm feeling good on the way Wayne has things going. The TV thing, I remember reading a piece
by Dave Coombs, the head of AMA Motocross and CrossCountry motorcycle racing here in the States.
He's been fighting for years to get those 2 venues on a regular tv time slot or schedule.
I got the impression good ratings are not in itself the answer.
He talked about how you need to get to know, and be known, by those in the world of TV Production,
to even have a chance to get your stuff broadcast.
Gonna be interesting to see how they do this year, that's for sure.
