You gotta remember, the grandstands are built for oval track racing. The capacity of the stadium (infield not included) is well over 250,000.

I think the official attendance was about 75,000... that isn't great, but not really empty either.

 

[Kazza]

Was that 75,000 for race day or the 3 day event?

BTW, Jason - the stunt rider - is he the "ghost rider"?

The stand I kept seeing was on the start/finish straight

 

[OKstate311]

Yeah but that was looking towards the infield side of the track. The stands behind me were completely packed. I'll see if I can find some crowd pics.
