Since the silver crown debate was restarted this week,i think i will ask question.why is dirt racing more popular than pavement racing.when usac had full fields at winchester,salem,irp,etc,it was great.i defy anyone to tell me that a race at winchester as recent as 2007 with a full field was not the most exciting racing you could see.true,there really is no pavement open wheel racing left as such.maybe that is why it is not popular.it does not really exist.personally,i believe to be a true race car driver you need to excel at both.stewart,clauson,larson,vogler,are recent examples.no one would argue that donny schatz is probably the best winged sprint car driver of all time behind steve.but all around,no.the greats could do both.you cannot argue that.
