On the other hand I would be concerned that that a lot of the casual basher types (and some portion of the existing regular racers) might be turned off by the carpet and would be less likely to try out racing. Those are the people you need to start racing to have enough racers to have a successful business. Given that our racing population is already on the small side, I would worry about alienating a significant portion of them.
Great points. I do think that if anyone would be alienated it would be the current racer who just enjoys dirt. New racers that are first exposed to carpet might not care as much about the surface. Good traction, big jumps and the RTR's hard compound tires are hooked up right out of the box.
