if racing really wanted to clean up, they'd quit letting repeat offenders stay in the game. change fine structures to percentage of money won, instead of a flat fee. there has to be consequences to make people stop doing what they're doing.
problem is, any time you find a test, someone comes up with a new drug that works til they get a new test.
Agreed, there are a lot of things that could be done. Perception means a lot, and if the things you mention were done and made very public, people might actually believe the sport is at least trying to be clean.

Right now, most people that support the game don't even think it is clean...why should onlookers?
