I've also known Greg for many years and in fact ended up with his Gambler pavement car that he won with on ESPN Thunder at IRP. I then took the same car and won the '95 Paragon Championship. I consider Greg a friend and last year got to spend some time with him at the Dusick Go Cart Open talking about racing in general and his job at USAC. He was excited about the opporitunity, but also knew the history well and what he was up against to make things better for USAC and their racers.
If Greg does move away from USAC he will find his footing quickly and be successful in what ever he ends up doing. His heart is in the right place and I think we all know that. The problem is, does the new USAC management see the same thing? Let's hope so.
