Food for Thought....The Last Generation?
Stock Car Racing History
Brian,
Thanks for posting this. Thought provoking for sure. I think we're definitely seeing a shift in youth interest in comparison to the types of motorsports we grew up on. The youth seem to like drifting and stadium trucks, and stuff like that more drag racing and stock car racing.
Your post is titled "Last" generation.I think one of the biggest hurdles in the survival of NASCAR is perhaps the "Lost" generation. I'm a fan because my father was. My son is because I am....etc. The last decade of NASCAR has been filled with all the stuff we told them we didn't like or want, and they did it anyway. The damage to the sport and its fan base brought on by things like the Top 35 guarantees, lucky dogs, and managed results created a long-term fan void. In their attempts to fill that void NASCAR has mounted multiple campaigns to capture new audiences. IN the mean time...many fathers stopped being a fan....a problem that I think will continue to ripple through the next generation. That's a real problem because none of those campaigns to find new fans have created any long-term fans...so to speak.
We do need the HOF to succeed. Thanks for sharing.

Doug,
We're still in the preliminary stages...which include getting a contract with the city of NMB, and then contracting someone to do the car show. It will definitely be outside. The other details will follow soon, I hope. Thanks for your interest, Doug.
