Open wheel dirt racing has a colt like following, they are loyal and put race attendance on a priority that for some is even higher than their profession! OK... life lived with out passion is not me either....we all have our thing, to some it is fishing, outdoors, reading, sports, ect...I at one time went to as many as 90 races a year, now, my passion is my family. I am struggling to string this together so here is my point! In regards to IOW and promoting your sport...your fan base is small, WAY SMALLER than you might think. I teach in a Indianapolis High School with 2300 students in the racing capital of the world!!! I have found 3 students that know what a sprint car is and 0 that have ever attended!! This message board has lost many followers over the years....Can this PASSION afford to lose followers? Society and Social Media is becoming more negative every day! The world needs more HAPPY !!!...I love to banter, you know, kinda argue and trade facts and try to persuade...hard to have discussions or heaven forbid ask a question sometimes on this site because there are some laying in the weeds just waiting to pounce. You want to promote your sport ? Keep running people off!
Huh?
