The key to the whole idea is public awareness. If the public know it exists, particularly the reactionary section of the public that hound enthusiests every time something like that comes on the TV, then government would be urged to get behind it, AND the private sector would be interested because of the all the public awareness (read advertising).

Ahhhhh . . . such misguided optimism . . . 
That same "reactionary section of the public" would go absolutely ape-sh!t if the government put money INTO racing for street cars. These John-Laws-loving, narrow-minded fv(k3rs would stomp on this (good) idea so fast it'd make your head spin (faster than your wheels!).
The argument would run: WHAT! Money encouraging Hooligans to HOOLIGANISE ? ! ? ! - MY TAX MONEY ? ! ? !  . . . MY TAX MONEY that could be paying for more hospital beds, or another ABC channel so I can watch reruns of the Bill?
NOT ON YOUR LIFE SONNY-JIM
Of course, I think that a handful of amatuer motorsports parks . . placed, run and PROMOTED well would be the best thing since radial tyres. The problem is though, that many of the knobjockeys causing mass-trouble on the street simply wouldn't consider showing up at an organised, safe event/venue, "coz eet eezn't fooolly sik bro" (or similar racial stereotype).
To be honest, I wouldn't want alot of these fools at such a place anyway, as the mix of big ego, little dick and no skill would likely stuff insurance and public reputation of motorsport for the rest of us.
Am I being too harsh?
