USAC tried that trick in the mid '80s....it was pretty much a short lived 'experiment'.

When the World of Outlaws first started the decision on wing or non-wing was made by the racetrack.

I know this post isn't worth the red background it's printed on but, wouldn't it be neat if the WOO ran what the tracks ran, whether it be wing, non wing, dirt, pavement, 410, or, 360. In my silly book that would really make the WOO the
WOO! And no tire rule of any kind, just contingency money. Just sayin.

You're right,I don't know anything.

How could I? Being that you are so tight lipped and oppossed to shameless self-promotion.


What do you have against the quickie lube?

It was pretty much a short lived necessity for usac to even get a race at some tracks. Wang's were hot late 80s then everybody went broke

I thought this was done before with Steve K's involvement. Wasn't it called NST?

If I'm reading this correctly, the NST and USA deals were national, geared towards direct competition against the WOO. I think this latest deal is regional, Indiana-Ohio-Michigan, maybe Pennsylvania? I would imagine the All-Stars would be the club to worry. Could be wrong.
