After thinking about this for a bit, I called my dad to see if my memory was correct. Back when we first started going to USAC races religiously, the format was brutal, In a great way for the fans but tough on racers. Only the top 28 qualifiers got to race, the rest went home. I think that’s in part why they produced the best wheelmen of all time. You got to race hard all the time or load it up.
