TV Ratings Down At All but 2 Events	Permalink

From Jayski.com: TV Ratings down at all but 2 races in 2006: TV ratings from NASCAR's first championship chase race weren't impressive - the Loudon race pulled a 3.1 rating on TNT (which Neilsen said translates to 4.792 million viewers), down 12% from the 2005 race. In comparison, NBC's Labor Day Sunday prime-time coverage of the California 500 pulled a 5.1 (8.4 million viewers); and NBC's NFL Sunday prime-time game Sept. 17 pulled an 11.9 rating (18.4 million viewers). ESPN, which will return to major coverage of NASCAR next summer, also scored big with the NFL, an 8.2 rating (12.570 million viewers) and 7.1 (10.495 million viewers) for its two Monday-night games on Sept. 11. Only two of the year's 27 races have had gains, the Daytona 500 and Martinsville.(Winston Salem Journal)(9-23-2006) __________________ NASCAR MODIFIEDS...WHERE IT ALL BEGAN.
