I never understood the draw until I worked in Alabama for a couple of years. Car racing has a big cult following in the South. Women loved it when guys say that they worked on a race car. AND if the guys worked in the Pit area, then the girls treat them like rock stars. The Babes start asking if they can get them a pass into the pre-race parties or the Pit Area. I watched a Daytona race in the early 90's for $40 and it's exciting for the first 20 minutes because of the noise, exhaust and the babes. There were a couple of crashes, but they happen so fast, you miss everything. After 2 hours you're definitely ready to leave early to beat the traffic.
Once in a while is OK.
