Good point. Putting fans in the stands isn't just a S/SS problem at Nats. and Divisionals it's all of handicap racing too. I think some organizations and tracks have gotten lazy about promoting the "little" guy. Living off their captive audience ( friends and family of the racer ). Lower spectator prices - be more than competitive for their entertainment dollar.
Handicap racing is not that hard to follow. If someone doesn't know the rules to a game or sport they don't understand it. They need to be informed. A print out or video or something. For the computer wizzes out there create a drag racing app.
It won't change over night it's taken years to get to this point but I believe it can change. We need to help promote ourselves.
