In Response to Nichole

How much affect do you think NASCAR’s marketing has on its viewers? What other events do you think have some sort of subconscious affect on its’ consumers?

I completely agree with Nichole when she says NASCAR is a great way for some companies to promote their products & services.

I am not a diehard NASCAR fan like so many others but I do see the benefits of promoting at NASCAR events. Whether it be on the car, in the stands, or on the track, advertisements are everywhere. Even NASCAR's championship series is called the "Sprint Cup". 

In my case I recognize the cars more than the drivers themselves. Brands become tied with car companies, and car numbers. For example I have no idea who drives the #20 Home Depot car but I know there is one. NASCAR events draw larger crowds then any other sporting even (including the Super Bowl), and with sometimes 100,000 plus in attendance along with the millions on TV, NASCAR is a marketers dream.
