A glimpse into Monster and motorsport

I think it's going to be up to NASCAR, weather Monster is going to be able to bring in younger fans, or not. If they insist on putting the Monster girls in fire suits, this sponsorship will fail. If NASCAR returns to it's Winston cup days, and lets them present the trophies to the winners, it might work well. The country is moving away from being PC, so this will be the perfect opportunity for NASCAR to do the same. The question is, will Brian France loosen up, and allow Monster to do what they do best. They will bring the younger people in. The question is, can NASCAR keep them?
I like a pretty girl as much as the next dirty old man, but that alone isn't enough to draw me to an event once, much less on a regular basis. If that's the only reason for a young guy to show up, I'd rather be someplace I stand a chance of scoring more than an eyeful.
 
^ Wear your # 5 firesuit next time you attend a race.

The results will alarm you.
 
12 cars heat races would be so boring unless it Richmond Daytona , hopes they don't do motorcross heats part 2

It is hard to believe that anyone in any age group would base a decision to watch a race based upon what the nubiles were or were not wearing. Are some guys that hard up?

Well...yes :). Sex appeal sells everywhere across every age group in every environment. Many of us are susceptible to some version of it. Even the TV news industry, whose average viewer is 55 or older, obviously features attractive women dressed appealingly for a reason.

However, the interest this creates is quite passing and can be lost very easily if something flashier comes along. It works, and can enhance something that is already entertaining. But it's window dressing, and you still have to have the window framed properly or it'll fall apart.

I think you used the perfect word when you said "enhance" as ultimately the product has to stand on its own. In the case of Nascar it would be hard to believe that someone would watch a 3.5 to 4.5 hour program in order to catch a glimpse at some voluptuous young gals but they would definitely be a nice end of race treat for some.

I dunno. I'd spend 10 or 15 minutes looking sideways at scrambled soft-porn on cable in the '80s. :rolleyes:
