I know this is the time of year when equipment gets tired and some teams can't afford to continue, but there has been a marked decrease in car count at some tracks and even some specials.
Here are a few examples (without naming any tracks because I don't want this to turn into a debate about promoters):
19 late models for a $1500 to win weekly show. Well off the 30+ cars they drew early in the season.
20 mods at a track that was getting 40-45 cars just a few weeks ago.
16 street stocks for a high paying special when two nearby tracks had the night off.
I can understand the SS not traveling for a special, but when very good tracks lose half their mods or a third of their late models its alarming.
