I think that if a guy has enough interest he will give it a try. IMO all these things to get people over to fly a few sequences is all fine and dandy but few of the guys we "Lure" over with these tatics will actually stick around. Out of an average club there may be 10% that will want to fly competition at all. Devide that up between Pattern, IMAC and racing. On average at any one event it usually takes guys from several clubs to reach 40 pilots. Not too sure there is anything we can do about it. Any of this type of flying takes time and money. neither of these things seem to be in abundance these days.
