The viewership on Sunday Night goes way down because most football fans are "footballed out" after 6 hours. But racing enthusiasts would just be getting started and wouldn't feel guilty about missing the Bengals/Seahawks game vs. a full slate of NFL action.

I picked Michigan and California as the Super Speedways and play to the interests of the general racing fan. Remember, you want CART to be big, you are going to have to have a lot of bandwagon fans. If you want it to be niche, they will be on the verge of bankruptcy every year.
