Wade I have to agree with both of you, it would go a long way, I remember Maple Grove Raceway some years back asking some of their local Bracket Racers to show their Race cars at malls around town to generate a feel of festivity and interest. I still love watching cars on trailers and unfortunately the box is now a garage on wheel which can be quite practical. Thank you Ken and Nitro for the reporting. CR

Yo Ken
Glad to see your OK .
I wondered where you went.
I guess you are making sure you are pitted far away!
LOL

James, where are you, don't tell me you went to Disney World.

Tried to get some pictures of people working on their race cars, not many people out. I did talk to John DiBartolomeo, he is always working. Here is a shot of a header he just finished that needed some welding done. The Last picture is something I am sure many of us experienced at least once. No damage to the trailer, just tire marks.

Jim, you are so right! There is some very nice eye candy five miles away. And I guarantee what they're seeing bumper to bumper is no comparison! Due respect to John D. he may do a nice repair, but in town there are many many nice pair! You never know what a little promotional effort could produce. Business people know!
