Default Re: no spectators for sportsman racers?

Here is a thought. How many spectators come to a race, then some more, then buy a race car. A very large portion of our fans are or become racers. I know I was a fan before I was a racer. Now I suck as a spectator unless its really freakin fast!

Sportsman racing tends to breed more sportsman racers rather than fans. Thats still a good thing.

Where the pro show is once a year shot in most markets and they bring a side show. Make no mistake we the sportsman are a big UNPAID part of that side show. I beleive it is the once a year deal that brings the larger crowds.

Hey Jason, I dont know if you are really at PRI, I was guessing because you have been low on the radar. But if you are there, Calvin said Rocks buying dinner!
