I've got Speedvision on and I'm wandering why week after week they have
lawn mower racing. We no longer hear about how the Pro Solo series being
televised.  With drag race type starts, the camera located on a platform
above the course,  fender camera's and in car camera's, it would seem that
Nationals would be more interesting to watch.  SCCA  runoffs were great and
live. SCCA has a good relationship with Speedvision  Our National Pro Solo
series, presented correctly, would seem to be more interesting to the
public than mower racing. 

How tough would it be to get a little more help from our sponsors they were
on TV.  SCCA Solo program would benefit,  individual car owners could
benefit,  i.e.. look what Kumho is starting to do with TV ads.  

Just a thought!  I think were are just the step child if SCCA.  Maybe our
new President (formerly involved in drag racing)  would be receptive. 
Rally dept seems to loose a lot of money.  Solo broke even.  Why not spend
a few dollars on marketing  the National Solo events
