Thats funny right there Going up and down the highway them rigs, T shirt trailers safety vehicles are sure to spark some interest. At the track? Im not sure their needed but who am I to say? Good old fashioned promoting like flyers on windshields at the Indy 500, Brickyard, Heck they don't even have to leave the property, Just put in a couple hours race morning and Qualifying and practice days. Pay some kid 50 bucks to do it.

I don't have a view good or bad of the new guy, Hopefully he can grow the sport.

I did say More midget racing is needed. I don't believe a weekly series would work but I could see about three weekends a year plus Midget week where three or four tracks could hook up and run a series or a Midget Kiss Series. The problem isn't *ARE MIDGETS EXCITING?* anymore its, *WE DON"T KNOW ANYBODY RUNNING THEM!* The typical fan has no idea who Davey Ray, Mike Hess, ect are in Indiana. Sure they'll recognize Tracy Hines or Levi but they are generally in Indiana not associated with Midgets no matter if they are champions or not and thats a shame.

Raise the price 5 bucks, Run em with your regular show and get people to know them for a couple years, Then maybe it can grow, both in participants and fanbase.

Chuck, again, I may be wrong but doing nothing is just moving towards extinction.
