Traffic is definitely an issue. I think that part of Fort Worth must completely gridlock during the big races, especially I-35. Yep. Traffic is definitely an issue.

We live next door to the Texas Motor Speedway and the two events they hold every year shut down all traffic for the weekend. After the last race on 11/5, my wife was coming home at 11:00pm, what we thought was a safe time. All routes to our neighborhood shut down, they were turned into one-way roads leaving the event. Traffic on those roads was bumper to bumper and crawling. Our choices on those weekends are stay home or stay away. The crowds at those events are staggering.

In fact, I read or heard that it is growing in popularity faster than any other major sporting event. Someone can fact check that, but I can tell you there aren't many football stadiums that can pack in 250,000 people in a 3-4 hour period.

It's about providing entertainment and providing an avenue for sponsors to talk about their products. They don't hide it. Contrast that with say the Olympics or College Football...
