I think a lot of people don't have or want a motorhome and the thought of being stacked in a field for a day has no interest for them. Go to L/S fest and you will see more open trailers then all NHRA races combined. Just an observation.
Not a solution, but I wanted to interject here.
I blame NHRA for letting the above folks get away.
Look what they allowed to happen to Stock, Super Stock and Super Street.
Very few young family guys can afford to jump into what was the original form of drag racing, ...long before all the other spin-offs, including but not limited to bracket racing, Super this and that shows, even before test and tune nights.
I'm not sure if it was the result of a short sighted plan, or no plan at all.

Back to P/Stock, I mean Pro / Stock..
