Don't forget about how USAC needs to operate-$$$$$$$
Maybe go to a 8" wide RR
The wonderful guys at USAC that want to make sure Toyota is happy so they have vehicles to drive around.....

They don't care. They would rather LIE, and yes I said LIE, to the racers and tell us how they are protecting us from ourselves......

We don't need another spec racing series.
Well how is it a good idea if you make 75% of your members have to spend thousands of dollars to be competative and allow all Toyota users (all of which are free motor deals) to not have to change a thing.

What is all boils down to is USAC is listening to a manufacture, and not the members that make these races happen. Maybe now is time to start another series and finally sink USAC
