Anything done to cater to a NPK/SO crowd would probably turn off the diehard classracer.
How does Bader fill the stands at his division races? That's what really should be looked into. The new generation is not into what the old generation is into for the most part. Not just in racing, football stadiums, baseball stadiums, Nascar and even concerts all have a dwindling attendance. Maybe trying to get the mass of young kids interested in class racing is like getting them excited about dancing the Jitterbug, or going to drive ins.

You never hear any advertisement for a divisional locally anymore and relying on racers to pay the bill doesn't make sense. Advertise and Fill the seats.
Turning stock into that venue would be a huge mistake. That would fuel their mission. There are no match races any more so Where is the excitement? Look at the excitement and press the AA final achieved! What does that tell you?
The backbone of the sport has a slipped disc! Fix it.
