International Racing is Waiting on North America

Postby Patuxet » Thu Apr 01, 2010 8:22 pm

Fred Pope delivers an important White Paper which details the problems facing racing in this country, explains how they came about and then makes a compelling case for a new way of thinking about racing in the Digital Age. What he proposes may very well be the last best chance to counter the downward gyre in our sport and launch it in a new direction.

This is well-considered thinking. Please give it the serious and fair hearing it deserves. Print it out, read it again and pass it around.
