Answer 1

Have your wife flash for the camera.

Answer 2

Go to where they do their Speed channel coverage from the desk. In the trailer area before you enter the racetrack, where everybody mills around buying souvenirs and getting free stuff. You'll see the camera up above when it pans the crowd, wave your sign etc. I have seen myself on tv when I scan the taped race coverage when I get home.

Answer 3

ah  VERY ah ah GOOD ah CHANCE

Answer 4

You can't carry signs into a race.  Think about it.  Have you ever seen a sign during race coverage?  Nope.  So no, it will not help you get on TV.  And besides, if you are at the race, how would you see yourself on TV?
