Swindell Speedlab did a race earlier this week with quite a few open wheel racers. It was with street stocks (easier to drive) at Charlotte and while it had quite a few cautions that I think they will get worked out and hopefully do it again. It was very well done (minus the numerous cautions) that I believe that fans would like to be a part of. The big thing was they were able to tap into the audio portion of the racers racing during it. I figured NASCAR would have done more of that today but that to me is what the fans want to experience and be a part of as it allows them to connect with the drivers. Just my opinion, but even once real racing comes back after everything passes, I think there is a market that can continue to be tapped into allowing "inside" connections with the racers and help grow with fans.
