Look at MotoGP. When they come to Indy it sells out - something F1 never achieved. When they go to Laguna Seca it sells out. MotoGP is the F1 of motorcycle racing. What's the difference? MotoGP's image isn't crafted as some kind of ultra pretentious snob fest.
Plenty of snobs in the USA and the World, although I disagree with your negativity.

MotoGP kicks ass because you can have 6 lead changes in half a lap, Kentucky Kid, sport bike demographics, faster, need more balls, etc.
