Clicks ain’t views, the truth is in the YouTube numbers. More important these videos do nothing to put young people in the stands much less get young people to build/buy a car and compete in the LODRS, NOTHING!

The plan isn't to get people into stands. Every sport on the planet is fueled not by the attendance in the stands, but the viewers watching on devices. Outlaw 275/NT stuff has this figured out. The amount of people that will watch a stream vs attend a race is 100:1. I don't want to commit one of the few weekends I have to sitting at a track all day. However, I will gladly play a subscription fee to watch, which I do.

The best way for prizes purses to grow and for sponsor money to come in, is viewership, period. That has very little to do with people sitting in the stands. All sports are driven by TV/Streaming rights and that is where racing has to go if it wants any money involved in it.

I agree it’s all about social media however as I stated previously,, our kind of drag racing, NHRA LODRS racing is not attracting younger people neither as fans nor racers. what young people are interested in drag racing is the kind of racing that first and foremost is heads up racing, racing that largely utilizes current technology, fuel injection, turbos, pro chargers and engine management tuned with a lap top not a timing light and screw driver and at least the appearance of few if any rules.
