So I start by asking who/which promotion team? USAC or an individual track, Kokomo, The Burg, Haubstadt, T.H. etc.

If your talking USAC, the thing with USAC is take a look around you. They see no problems with what their doing. Every single person on IOW could be upset with USAC and if they think their doing great or aren't worried about what people think, then they aren't going to change anything or do anything any different. Just that simple. Look at the situation about the added weight on the #69 and #19 cars, still no word, still not addressed, likely won't be addressed, they don't care what a fan thinks or wants or a driver for that matter since RB spoke up and nothing happened.

Now on the flip side of that. I am not what you would call a gamer. Likely most people on here are not either. I do not have time in my life to sit around and play video games on an every day basis. However there are people who do and they are what you call gamers. It's what they do and they enjoy it and that's how they enjoy their free time. So WoO has a racing video game. It has 410s, 360s, 305s, LM, Mods, Street Stocks, Midgets. It has a ton of different tracks, real authentic tracks and created tracks. I believe the game came out in 2022. Supposedly their coming out with another one in the Fall of 2024. The graphics and details are unreal on the game. Kokomo Speedway is so detailed it even has the recent West Leg/Conveyor going out to what us locals know as The Corn Pile. It has the Cell Tower right there. It has rail cars on the back stretch. It even has the off colored panel on the North end of the big grain building that John Mapes flipped over both fences and hit back in the late 80s early 90s.

So one of my best friends who knows 0 about racing and has never been to a race bought this video game. Instantly he got hooked and I even got hooked when I went over to his house to play the game. Now he knows who Gravel, Sweet, Haudy, etc are and now he wants to go to a race and he's 42 years old!! Young kids that play video games would possibly get interested if USAC came out with their own game being a Nonwing version with Sprints, Midgets, SC.

As far as an individual track. Same thing. They have to care and have to want more people in the stands. A new younger generation to join the faithful fans of today's world. Look at the guy they call MilkMan who took over Montpelier. That guy is doing and trying everything he can to build the place back up. Bc he wants to. Some promoters seem to do what they can to not make it better. Look at LP...charging an extra $5 for Sprint Week that no other track is charging according to IOW? Sounds like a great idea to pull new fans and more fans in lmfao smh.

You gotta get creative and think outside the box and come up with new exciting ideas. Same old stuff doesn't work with new and younger generation.

Another example, Justin Grant was at the Kokomo Sam's Club last Tuesday or Thursday doing a meet and greet and something else was there too. I'm a huge JG fan, I live in Kokomo, never heard a single word about it until the next day after it was over, on any forms of local advertising or here or USAC website.

Takes alot of work and alot of effort to promote things, but you have to want to promote it and want more fans and want new generations bc you could be told the best ideas in the world by current fans but if you don't want to do it then it's not going to happen.
