How about pushing the splendors to promote the racing and events more. Maybe promote more at schools. Say Monday before etown hit a trade or vocational school with three or four different cars and drivers. Say ashley force and funny car, Melanie grossly with her pro mod turbo, Thomas fletcher and his super stocker or the canaries and maybe a super comp car. Talk to the kids we love cars in this world. Fire them up draw the kids senses in the smell and noise will be something that will draw them in. Tell them about the friday night street legal races and try to hook them from the bottom up.
You're further reinforcing my point.The people you mention are second generation racers.Bruno Massell's car has enough money in it to support a third world nation.
Fans don't carry the experience of seeing and talking to us as races home with them.
It's just another day out for them.
