Default Displaying Racecars at entrance to National Events

Watching the TV show and it looks like at a lot of the national events they have antique show cars at the spectator entrances. Can someone with a in with NHRA suggest that they park real active or just retired race cars there. The car owners would love it. Would be cool to have a Bucky Hess cuda, a Bongiavani Cobra jet to name a few and a have plaque in front explaining the car and the class it races in. Even have some of the local class racers with their cars, maybe generate more interest in stock/super class.

Having displays at shopping malls has more exposure to the general public and to the younger generations. I have seen and participated in this for drag racing and road racing. Circle track, sprintcars and drift cars have done the same. It does create interest.

Would be cool to let N/A stock/Super stock fuel injected cars run nitro. Just need to change injector so air fuel ratio goes to about 1 to 1.5 from 12/13 to 1
