Something that V8 Supercar organizers should consider.
They did try... at the Homebush series launch earlier in the year, the trucks were centrepieces of a run thru the Sydney CBD, across the harbour bridge... and out west to the Olympic sports stadium.

I think 3 men and a dog watched them on their journey (admittedly not well publicised....)
