LOUISE,
IF I MAY BE SO BOLD AND PRESUMPOUS AS TO ANSWER FOR JACK, I WOULD SAY THAT
EXPOSURE BROUGHT BY MEDIA PUBLICITY CAN, AND -MOST CERTAINLY- WOULD SOW THE
UGLY SEEDS OF (Percieved) ADVERTISING PROFIT, AND GREED IN THE HEARTS OF
Heart-LESS AD MEN EVERWHERE.
THEIR NEXT STEP WOULD BE THE UNCEASING EXPLOITATION OF THE RACERS THROUGH
"SPONSORSHIP" ....LEADING TO WHAT YOU HAVE TODAY IN NHRA, NASCAR, WoO, ET
AL: COST ESCALATION -WHICH AS YOU KNOW, MAKES THE RACING TOTALLY
UN-AFFORDABLE AND UN-OBTAINABLE FOR "THE LITTLE GUY". -WHERE NO-ONE BUT
THE CORPORATE MILLIONAIRES CAN AFFORD TO RACE.
-IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT ?
LSR IS -THE ONLY- RACING LEFT FOR THE LITTLE GUY.
LET'S KEEP IT THAT WAY.
----------------------
PUBLICITY BE DAMNED.
ONE MAN'S (Curmudgeon's) OPINION, -THAT I WOULD DEFEND TO THE DEATH BECAUSE
I KNOW I'M RIGHT.
ONE LAST THOUGHT: ...DAM NEAR EVERYTHING IN AMERICA IS "FOR SALE" ANYMORE.
LET'S NOT SELL LSR DOWN THE RIVER TOO....
-------HAPPY NEW YEAR -------------------

Jack,
What constitutes "big time" media to you?
HOT ROD has almost 900,000 circulation.
CAR&DRIVER is more than 3 million.
Is cable OK? like Speedvision? or ESPN?
What about the networks? CBS? NBC? ABC?
Why do you want them to stay away? What threat to the sport do they pose in
your opinion?
Be Vigilant,
"LandSpeed" Louise Ann Noeth
