I usually open up the trailer and show them the car and tell them where the race is. I also ask them to look me up if they do come to the race. Both NHRA and IHRA need to do a better job of television and Internet broadcast of the sportsman catagories
The pro classes are in bigger jeopardy than the sportsman. What do you think is going to happen when Force and Shoemacher loose their major funding. They are barely filling their fields. Prostock is struggling to get and keep sponsors too.

Agree 100% , They proved it when Pinks started you could not find a empty seat in the stands..... Now Why !!! Promotion, Drama, Excitement, TV , Whatever it worked If we have to turn S/SS into a Reality show to get peoples attention because that's all that people watch anymore!!!! Who Cares........Let's do it !!!! lol I will yell at people and call them names and make them cry if that's what it take's lol . Call it REAL WORLD of Sportsman Racing. And until people figure out its scripted who cares....At least we will get people to watch and maybe want to build a car and join the fun.
