Wonder if Track Promoters are trying this?

Maybe when it was affordable, because today it's far from that.

Compared to what? Taken the family to a movie or ball game lately?

One of the tracks I work for tried this with the schools and got no bounce from it. Kids aren't into cars like they used to be.

What is not affordable to you?

I was just wondering that if you got the kids interested then they would bring parents and all and you would sell more tickets and all. Also maybe do something cool like a enduro where the kids could throw water balloons and such at the enduro cars. And another good one how about every week maybe do a random drawing after heat races from the kids tickets and allow the winners to be in victory lane with the feature winner. One for Late Model, Modified, stock car, compact or pro 4. And adults draw 5 winners with each getting a free item of their choice from the concession stand such as Hot Dog, Hamburger, Ice Cream, Soda, or Sausage

I helped a promoter/owner of a track and he tried numerous things to no avail. It never hurts to try new things because you never know what might catch on.

I was thinking if most track promoters are trying something like this. Going to the local schools within 30 minutes of their track and getting the kids in K-9 Coupons for Free Admission and a Free Hotdog and Drink. This would allow you to collect on Souvenirs, Admission on adults as well as other older family and also collect on food. And it could be a write off on your taxes. Just a thought. It would help the sport alot by introducing the kids to racing and families.
