Noticed a lot of TV commercials over the weekend from both Knoxville and Eldora on ESPN, Speed and Fox during the Nationwide, Truck and Cup races respectively.
Since I get DirecTV, I would guess that the Speed and ESPN commercials were nationwide but the Fox commercial was local.
Looks to me like the new promotors at both tracks are pulling out all the stops to fill the stands (Knoxville's commercial was for just this upcoming weekend (Pella Motors Race for Your School Night), while Eldora's commercial was for their big events over the entire season (Prelude, Dream, King's Royal, 4 Crown Nationals, and World 100).
Hope both tracks get the bang for their buck out of these (especially the ones that aired on ESPN and Speed, as I'd imagine those are the more expensive ones).
