    They are... too bad those are few and far between in many classes nowadays...

    Wait you found the answer and it was right in front of our faces! Make the MA races support classes for the Vintage fest! Then add another six rounds or so and move it around the country. Think about it, 60 thousand fans or more each weekend, the paddock filled with people, race transports, and swap meet booths. It's a win, win and advertisers will come running. Maybe Just for Men hair products or Viagra could be the title sponsor?

    The problem is there wouldn’t be enough room in the pits for another Astro Van. Much less parking a rig.

    Take it from me, I parked them with about 3 other workers. It’s a shitty job tha has to be done.

    I suspect its a better use of SX's time to promote their product, not someone else's. advertising isnt free. at a minimum, SX has to pay someone to make those posts.

    I think all motorcycle racing could benefit from cross promotion.
    Would be really cool to see AMA crown a Grand National champion once again. Count the top six or eight races from a riders main field and one or two from every other proffesional form and whover has the most points wins. I think that would go a LONG way to helping. Plus it would be REALLY cool.

    It doesn't cost anything for SX to post an ad from MotoAmerica for the season opener on facebook on the week leading up to the event. And vice versa

    and on TV, they should take out an ad or two on the other platforms if they can

    You going to pick up the entire facility and the museum too? Because those are why the Vintage Fest is huge, not what is racing on the road course :D

    ghetto customs Who's that Parrish guy?


    Whoa whoa whoa wwhhooooaaaaa.......

    Leave the Astro van out of this equation. Thou is the most reliable and stylish amongst the poor poeple. It has its place of nostalgia and fits anywhere it has to be parked. (Fist up) "Astro Power"

    Not knocking the Astro. Making a reference to just how packed vintage fest is.

    Anyone see that the BSB Motec ECU is now going to be the MA SBK ECU?

  17. But you forgot to add the racing is also good. The two premier classes in MA have minimal excitement with 600’s being damn horrible. The junior cup and the twins classes had some damn good racing (twins being less exciting but still fun to watch). I still always try to bring as many people with me to the track as I can, heck I’ve even bought tickets for people. They’ve all said pretty much the same. Don’t they ever pass each other? Why are they all so spread out. This was referring to the back half of the field either. I don’t have a magic 8 ball on how to fix it but we also need to face the facts. This next generation just isn’t interested in cars, bikes, etc. They are just a tool, in general the passion is fading and fading fast. I have access to some research data that I can’t post but it hurts to even look at it being a person who even does head work on his weed eater. Makes me sick to my stomach but probably the next generation won’t even own cars. Already the number of sales is way down per capita.
     
  18. Yes sorta. In MA you can turn a lot more stuff on though.

    Mistake if that's the case. As run in BSB it's already complicated af.
