I think you've got this wrong.
People that frequent drag strips tend to be "vocal" and the sport is more obvious as a result.
I suspect that drivers that frequent road courses are more quiet than 1/4 mile fanatics.
Take HPR for example, I'm just learning that this track was privately funded by the original clubs in the area. They raised all of the money and built the track to fill a gap in the area. There are a lot of very talented drivers out there. I bet they'd love this car (real or not) based on what I see them driving.

The Demon is a neat car, but I'd be all over an ACR long before the Demon.
