Signed!

As a dedicated Sportsman racer, I can't even watch the coverage as presently presented. Same cars, same commentaries. "Wide World of Sports" had good Sportsman Drag Racing coverage and I think viewership was respectable. In fact, it's still on YouTube 30+ years later! "Pinks" was successful with a bunch of no-names because there was a small back story and the editing brought excitement to the screen.
Thanks you for your considerations!
