TV News: Weekend USA TV Ratings
Only NASCAR and NHRA were in action this past weekend, and ratings were up nicely for both. The Cup race peaked at 4,492,000 viewers.
Top 5 Available Cup race markets:
Greensboro 4.8/13
Charlotte 3.8/12
Indianapolis 3.7/11
Hartford 3.6/11
Norfolk 3.5/9
However, the TV ratings for NHRA, although up, are still horrible.
