it is too bad some of you see brainerd as such a lesser event.
back in the 90's when the digger used to publish attendance, i remember
brainerd one year having 105,000 spectator count, also reported
that BIR was the 5th best attended race that season.
this last weekend BIR was as full as i've ever seen it.
it is the opinion of countless sportsmen racers that BIR has some of the
most convenient pit parking of all nat. event tracks; especially this year
with additional pit and pit road paving.
the Lucas' state every year that sponsoring the BIR event gives them
access to their Canadien customers; you'd be surprised how many racers
and especially spectators come to BIR from canada.
One of our pro-crew friends we've known over the years........had two
of his friends fly to the race from the left coast just because he told
them, 'you have to come to brainerd'. I met them both, they both said
they were having tremendous fun and glad they came.
don't knock it before you try it.
