take this effort, show someone rc, show them a race, show them how to solder a battery, show them how to tune a motor...make it enjoyable to race and learn the dynamics of off/on/touring/pan/ racing.....

if there are no tracks, ill just end up making my kitchen smell like wintergreen.
I agree with you, keeping local tracks open, attracting new racers etc is deeply important. I also think that finding a better answer than these additives is important and these objectives are not mutually exclusive.
