I’m pleased to direct you to Live 2.0, the idea-driven website overseen by online ticket seller Goldstar.com. Currently, the site is asking questions about the audience for live events—who are they, where are they, how can they be reached? As part of the discussion, they asked me to write this essay about the changing nature of gay audiences. I’m really happy with what I wrote, not least because I mention gay NASCAR fans. I’d love to hear your thoughts on the piece!

To All The Bored NASCAR Fans Out There… Patience Is A Virtue

Boring. Tedious. Wearisome. These are adjectives continually assigned to NASCAR races. It seems that we, the fan, expect to be entertained every week with side-by-side racing, last lap passes, on-track rivalries and finishing orders that materially affect the Chase. It’s clear that we’d rather not watch a 400-mile event where a single car drives away with a five second lead, such as Sunday’s Brickyard 400. Well, if watching the 36-race parade isn’t managing to live up to our expectati

For Stock Car/NASCAR fans, PIT Strategy is an Augmented Reality game with a different point of view: From developers Beyond Reality , the idea isn’t to drive the cars, but to control the pit stops, make them as fast as you can.

NPR and NASCAR just don't mix. National Public Radio has waded into the Jeremy Mayfield scandal with an All Things Considered story entitled, "Will drug scandal crush NASCAR fans?" The implication in the headline is that you, as a NASCAR fan, could be crushed by news that a driver who has not been relevant for years has been called a drug user by a sanctioning body that tends to make up the rules as it goes along. NASCAR fans have lived through far worse without being "crushed." The openin
