I never thought about it before but the open trailer is one heck of an advertising tool. An old promoter that used to run Brown County Speedway in Southern Ohio brought it to my attention. He said he loved race cars on open trailers and was thinking about paying a $50.00 bonus for any car winning one of his features that came to the track on an open trailer.

With Radio and TV time being so expensive now days and Posters being out dated the open trailer guys are the best form of advertising that a race race track has, and I am serious that promoters should make some incentives for the guys hauling on open trailers. Big old cracker boxes hauled behind Pick Up trucks are everywhere and people pay them little attention but that one lone race car sitting on an open trailer does seem to draw all the kids to the side of the car as they pass on the road or to your trailer when you stop for fuel.

Remember that sign that some people put on the back of their trailer "Follow Me to the race track"??
