Regarding Louie's suggestion below....every market has a variety of
events that attract car/racing enthusiasts. It could be a "cruise in",
a pro-racing event, a car show, etc. All of these are great venues to
get exposure to potential F500 participants. At the Cleveland Auto
Show, held each year in February, the SCCA region has a booth. Over
100,000 people attend the show. Region members staff the booth and
promote various SCCA functions. A couple of years ago, a few
enthusiastic members were promoting autocross and when we had our first
event a few months later, over 200 particpants showed up!
Without spending $$, but just spending some spare time, we can get
exposure and create interest for many new racers. A couple of EZups and
a few cars will attract a lot of attention at any car related event.
When we explain how (relatively) economical it is and the extreme fun
factor, plenty of newbies will come on board.
At local autocrosses, it's easy to offer a ride to folks. Once
they've driven an F500, they'll likely want one. I know that happened
to me, and to many who I've let drive my car. And it's not unusual for
AX folks to "graduate" into roadracing.

PS...If I can get a motor installed this weekend, I'll add to the car
counts by entering the Double National at Pocono next weekend.
