Too broad a brush, means that rather than attracting everyone, you attract no one. There is a huge difference between balance and diversity and yet you can have both. Although I didn't go to Rod Millen's Leadfoot this year, it appears to have balance AND diversity.

I wouldn't pay to go to a race meeting just to see one class - ever. Adding a drift class to a circuit meeting adds diversity, but it throws out the balance of the event, so the drift fraternity would probably not support it, just for 15% of the day, as 85 % of the day may be of zero interest to them. Equally, 85% of the spectators may not be too keen on drifting either. However, adding a drift element to say the skid pan at HD during a race meeting, may introduce drifting to those who haven't seen it, but without reducing track time for the racers.
