They would drop tremendously. Someone wrote an article recently about how they think the drop over the past 3 years has been because he has been running so poorly. If he left, it would get even worse. I'll look for the article.

Found it! From Fox Sports http://msn.foxsports.com/nascar/story/7523576

If he left now it there would be a huge drop in the ratings, face it someday he will leave but now, I'd say about at 25% drop until someone else comes along with the same fan base.. There was a article on Fox Sports this past week, I think another answer had the link on here, that with Jr being in a great ride, he is going to save the Nascar ratings.. I don't know about that but, maybe a few wins the ratings will come back up...Again only time will tell..

I don't think that it could be measured. Let's face it, the ratings are probably going to keep falling anyway. NASCAR just keeps doing too many bone headed moves that the fans don't like.

This is purely a guess on my part. 30% drop, but it would recover quickly! Other drivers would fill the void. True Nascar fans know that one driver does not make a race!
Just my thoughts!

Ratings would go down about 35-40%. He's just been voted "Most Popular Driver" for the fifth consecutive year. He's the most popular because of his dad's old fans as well as his own fans that have allot respect for the way he drives (not like his dad). I happen to fall in the latter catagory. NASCAR wants to keep him around as long as possible.

It would not hurt nascar at all. Nascar is too big to be dominated by one racer

NASCAR ratings were higher before he went to cup..... So it obviously doesn't matter. And he's obviously not helping the cause since ratings have been dropping year after year...

A driver popularity vote has nothing to do with fan base numbers. Again its obvious since his daddy never won that award until he died.

Have a nice day!

not too bad. Believe it or not, Earnhardt Jr is NOT the only driver out there.

i think sonsidering the fact that he has already lost many fans despite winning the most populer driver award (again!) it won't make much of a difference. he's not the only driver in the cup series.

Not badly at all.

It would be different if he was a consistent contender.

NASCAR would usher in someone else to market the hell out of, I'm sure.
