That's a good idea, but my cousin worked/works at interstate dragways during the season and that place is strapped for cash, if not losing it. I would venture to say that venues that have to close during the winter or aren't by a big city won't be able to afford something like that. On the other hand, any place that hosts NHRA is probably not hurting really bad.
