Dear Racing Fans,

I am asking for your help in an academic research study on the purchases you make when attending major racing events like NASCAR Cup, World of Outlaws, NHRA Nationals, and IndyCar races. I would greatly appreciate you completing a short survey that should take about 8 minutes to complete.

The goal of this research is to develop a profile of racing fans’ purchases. This type of research has been done in other professional sports like the NFL and NBA, but has never been done for motorsports. Your answers to the survey will help us in determining what it costs to attend major races.

Your answers are completely confidential and only used in summaries. In no way will you be identified in the study. Your participation in the survey is strictly voluntary. You may stop the survey at any time without any penalty. If you are over 18 years-old and would like to participate, please click the link below (or copy and paste the address in your browser) to go to the survey on SurveyMonkey.

If you have any questions about the survey, please contact me by sending me an e-mail at harshawce@wssu.edu or calling me at (336) 750-3266.

Thank you for your help with this research.

Sincerely,

I took your survey. Also questioning my career choices, not knowing that 'Professor of Motorsports Management' was a career possibility.

Having the cool address Bowman Grey Field House , would be another benefit.
 
I tend to avoid all online solicitations as a matter of personal policy. I have verified that Professor Harshaw is who he claims to be, and he did post this survey. So I will be glad to complete the survey.
 
Filled out! One thing I do have to say, though, is that you seem to have only allowed one answer to the question regarding ethnicity. As a half-black half-white guy, there's absolutely no way to answer that question for me. Outside of that, it's really cool! Thanks!

Hey, I'm reppin "Self-styled critic of the modern age" but it ain't payin as well as I thought.
 
Thank you to all who have participated in my survey!

My goal is to have at least 300 participants in the survey. If you have not yet completed the survey, I will greatly appreciate your input. I am interested in what fans buy and why they buy concessions or souvenirs when they attend races. I am not collecting names, phone numbers, or e-mail addresses. Your input is completely anonymous and in no way identifiable. If you are at least 18 years old and would like to participate, please click the link below.

Thank you,

There are NASCAR sanctioned events in Canada. no way to indicate this
 
One more item that should be added. A zero for races attended. I had to choose 1&2 because 0 was not an option.
