NASCAR is a Lifestyle

What makes Washington State such a prospect for a NASCAR track is it holds Seattle one of the top ten media markets in the United States. Portland and Seattle are the only two cities not reached by NASCAR. The track in Washington State would cover that void as it would only be a couple hours from Seattle and five from Portland. The benefit to the economy is that most people travel and stay near the track or at the track for a four day period. This would boost the economy with 250,000 people attending the track like in Texas, that's a large amount of people needing somewhere to eat, sleep and have some fun... (wink, wink).

Unlike other sports NASCAR is a four day weekend almost like a concert at the George. Every race weekend is comparable to the economic impact of the Superbowl (the biggest sporting event of the year). NASCAR runs 36 weekend out of the year. From February to November. In addition to the NASCAR events. Each track has weekend local racing events year round.
