I'm glad we have teams that can compete with USAC but we always had some of those types of teams. Today we might have one or three more teams that can compete with the national guys but I think it came at a heavy price for the racers that can't afford to compete at a national level and have given up on midget racing.
I'm hoping next years ARDC schedule will find some smaller tracks to attract more teams. I would rather see midgets at a track like Kutztown (if it could happen) rather than big half miles and that is only due to the decreasing car counts

Midgets won't ever be at Kutztown as long as Rich and the Speedstr's are there. The Speedstr's were built as a rival / competition to midgets and to be more affordable. I would love to see Midgets there though. I am looking forward to the USAC swing for Path Linda's and Lanco
