lessons learned from a previous event featuring Drag Racing
Some years ago, my organization tried something very unusual, for a bank, and featured "customer appreciation days" at Bandimere Raceway; a well known NHRA track in Denver. I rented the entire dragstrip for the event, arranged for rails and jet cars and some of Denver's fastest friends to exhibit there. My fear was that our crowd would set on their hands and choose to be only spectators (gotta worry about something).
The Bandimere staff, in a stroke of genius, routed our entire customer base, from the park entry as they came in, down the strip, and then on to the parking area. Having once driven down the track, concerns were then abated, and the rest of the night developed into a real free for all. Young vs old, men vs women, wives vs husbands, Cadillacs vs Camaros, it was a total unabridged success. Got the tee shirt to prove it.
I don't think the Spyder Lovers will be quite as shy to take a trip down the quarter mile, but it's still something management might want to consider anyway.
Looking forward to a great experience.
