all the talk on how to save class racing....

[nopwradders]

I think the "Pinks all out" thing has really helped. No, its not class racing but its something to get the spectators and racers that otherwise dont race involved. The biggest thing that I here from young people, some who drag race/test and tune, and others who dont is the question "why do so many cars in a bracket race/index racing sand bag?" I feel that some kind of "heads up racing" is what the younger crowd is looking for. "package racing" could be the answer. I know heads up racing is tuff to work out do to all the diffferent cars and mods. But do what Pinks does. Pick a certain field or two or three fields.

NOPW,
We did just what you are suggesting back in the 70's at tracks I owned and the Hallsville track. That was when Stock and SuperStock, Modified was in an evolution phase that was putting the little guy out. It kept the local spectator / racer interest up and helped attendance until Bracket racing took hold. (then the spectators left) Now we see the evolution to Index racing and it is bringing back some spectator apeal.
I've been working on a format to address todays needs.

Good to hear you long, short story John... :~)
A lot of racers are just focused on racing and forget about the business aspect that drives or is associated with our sport.

Adger:

Remember what I told you you should do a couple of years ago?

Have you been thinking about that? Hope you are coming up with

a few good ideas to improve upon hat suggestion.
