Default Wanna be on TV?

This is totally off topic but it may help get a carguy/family on TV.

My daughter works for a major television network and she is helping develop a new reality tv show (yeah, I know!). They are looking for a subject family to document. She and I would love for that family to be a car family and have trips to the track or autocross course as part of the show so she told me to ask here to see if any of you know any families that might qualify.

Here is what she sent me:

"They are wanting to film the All American Family and get back to the roots of America.

I've already sent one autocrossing family to my daughter and while I was talking to her I asked for some more adjectives of the family they are looking for.

Wholesome was the first adjective. Like I said, anything but like the Osbournes!

They would like more than just 4 people for better group dynamics but they aren't ruling out smaller families. Having a relatives, kids or mother-in-law living with or close by is a plus. Weird Uncle Harold would not be a turn off!

The whole family does not have to work together but a family business is a plus. BUT they do have to be a close family and be together a lot.

Drama doesn't have to be a daily thing, but the family has to be interesting in some way.

Group projects/work/interrests are a definite plus.

He didn't say the cat listened, only that he talked to it.

But seriously no one knows anyone who would be good candidate?

It won't be a car show, but I would love for it to have a car element. Carguys are usually good guys. Cars are old fashioned American values aren't they?
