NASCAR honored with two awards for listening to fans

NASCAR's Fan Council has earned national acclaim by winning the Forrester Groundswell Award in the Business-to-Consumer Listening category as well as the Vision Critical 2009 Panel of the Year Award.

NASCAR introduced the Fan Council in 2008 to gain a better understanding of its fan base.

In 2009, regular consultations with the council, an online community of 12,000 avid fans, resulted in two important changes to the sport: double-file restarts and earlier and consistent TV start times.
