their strategic marketing analyst, I would encourage the league to focus its efforts on road courses, as well as, oval tracks for its racing venues. Oval tracks were initially built for stock car racing (Ferrell & Hartline, 2014); however, I think open-wheel racing can also be a part of this venue.
