@dgoodin24 In short, I’d rather pay the premium price to guarantee the autograph than wait in line for hours on the gamble that I get a “free” wristband.
There need to be more fan events in general. Less days at the track has hurt that aspect of the sport.
@dgoodin24 Free autograph sessions have also been overrun by resellers and are poorly managed too. For CLT race week, you have to be in line early in the morning, if not overnight. People holding spots for others also hurts the experience. I’d rather pay if I have the means to do so.
