After another great ISW I have invited friends for Smackdown. They have their tickets and plan on bringing their RV. Now some comments derived from this year's ISW as to how to get them to come back for more-

1. Please have an adequate PA System. Terre Haute terrible, Kokomo needs improvement, most others fine. To us who are dyed in the wool fans this may not seem important, but to a new fan it is critical they be informed and entertained as to driver name, program format, etc.

2. Start on time, be prepared to adjust program if weather threatens.

3. Track prep was great at every ISW facility, yes Terre Haute has room for improvement. Heavy is best, dust a downer.

4. Fans, please use seat saving in a considerate way. If you have saved enough room for 10 people and only 4 show up, remove your tape, blanket, etc. so others may utilize the space. They also paid admission.

5. Continue to upgrade rest room facilities. This is often a new fan killer.

6. Provide out of car driver intros. on track for feature event. (Weather and time permitting)

7. Announcers hype the driver bio, and play by play the race over the PA.

Going to try leave all the rain in Florida before heading for another great Smackdown!
