Hey Don, they are having tryouts at gainsville raceway soon, for upcoming episodes. I think the shows are having a huge impact on the general population, whether they are good or bad ,im not sure, but i think between these shows, and the ricer trend, it seems that the race image is turning for the better! They show that young kids can be cool, and have fun at the same time. I think most people still have a image, that racing is for rednecks!! Now that celebrities, and sports guys are getting into it , and all these shows kinda give it a bling factor, its getting more popular. I also believe that the early ricer crowd , are now getting wiser with age , and realizing, kinda like wally did, that they need orginization, and safety, to further the sport.
