There are entirely to many "NATIONAL" Sprint Car series and too many different rules for each series. I feel that USAC WOO And All Stars are the Leading 3 series. Since the All Stars and WOO run Wings all the time USAC would be mindful to do the same the Motor Package of 410 is the same but USAC doesn't run a wing. I also feel that all 3 Series should combine and have regional divisions that compete for Points and Money with Purses within 1000.00 plus or minus Dollars of each Divisional race. At the end of the season the top 20 in points of each division all meet at a central location and have a 10 day Points race off. With the winner of the points is the true National Champion. With Divisional Points Pay out and National Points Payout to the top Driver/s.

That would seriously boost the National Sprint Car Drivers to a much higher status. With NASCAR losing spectators yearly, I feel the Sprint Car racing could fill the void of the disenfranchised NASCAR Fans. Sprint Car Racing IMOHO Is the best racing in the Country. It just doesn't get the recognition needed to become a huge spectator sport. By having 1 Series with Several divisions the advertising and even eventual TV programing I feel Sprint car racing could become huge. Especially the 10 Race Championship at the end of the season.

Also it would lessen the traveling by having Divisions throughout the Country which in turn would lessen expenses for the teams competing.

Just My 2 cents
Nah, thats "one size fits all". Diversity is good....some people like wings & some don't. Allstar teams probably can't afford all the travelling that WoO does. Thats why they're centered in Ohio area. ASCS 360 teams probably can't afford 410 engines, & the local series let them compete without all the travel expenses. And who cares about NASCAR fans?
