I think it is a great idea. They would still get the good spot for being early while supporting the race.

Is there going to be enough room at the mall for the rigs? 6 rigs can take up a lot of space. In the north east, parking is a premium, everywhere. Years ago they used to have tech at the mall near Englishtown. It was a different time. A lot less traffic. A lot of people
into these cars then. I suppose you could select certain people who are always early. They would have to unload and load their cars, of course, to let people see them. I`m not trying to rain on the parade. Just a few observations. I`m for anything that will help. We really need a marketing campaign, but who wants to pay for it? I don`t think NHRA is motivated enough to do anything like this. Most racers do this because they want to see how they measure up to the best.The matter of time and money is just part of what a racer is willing to deal with. I think social media will help. Most young people are glued to their phone. Need some savvy people to take the lead.
