Personally I wouldn't do such an interview. The fewer number of people that know I have guns the better. Let them go talk to the USPSA folks.
Capel. Nascar vs F1 isn't really a good analogy. There's nothing stock about nascar anymore. SCCA perhaps but nobody that follows nascar knows what that is.
I personally consider this bad advice and this attitude hurts our sport. This is a teaching opportunity and we must use every such opportunity to educate and counter the garbage that is often spread about shooting and people who shoot safely.

I, for one, would jump at the opportunity to take advantage of such a "teaching moment"
