    If INDYCAR could just get as bad off as NASCAR

    They could match this seen on jayski

    One In Five Fortune 500 Companies Invest In NASCAR: More Fortune 500 companies are involved in NASCAR than in 2008, according to a recent review of brands currently using the sport to drive business. The analysis looked at companies that either sponsor NASCAR teams, tracks, the sanctioning body, or are media partners. The number of current Fortune 500 companies invested in NASCAR (114) remains higher than any other sport. In 2012 alone, more than 24 brands entered the sport, including a handful of Fortune 500 companies. Although being a Fortune 500 company is the gold standard of success for publicly-traded companies in the United States, there are several global corporations currently involved in NASCAR that were not included in the review because they do not meet Fortune's domestic criteria. To be eligible for the Fortune 500, a company must be based in the U.S. and be publicly traded. The companies in consideration actively utilize NASCAR as marketing vehicle through a team, track or NASCAR official sponsorship, licensing agreement and/or a media partnership.(NASCAR)(7-18-2012)

    Yep, that would be nice.

    Somewhat different way to look at it

    I'd rather have 10% of the world interested in the ICS than 50% of US that NASCAR currently has

    Indycar could play that game too. You get to count the MillerCoors involvement at the Milwaukee Mile. But what does that actually do for us?
