Love all the USAC information on the front page, especially during the off season when we are searching for articles to read. Going back in time has been fun to read. And really appreciate all the USAC results and stories we get during the racing months. We know right where to go to get quick results and updated point standings.

Thank you Richie for all your hard efforts. We all owe you a big thanks for staying up many late nights to keep us entertained.

I respect your opinion 55fan, everybody has the right to an opinion certainly.
I happen to love the old reviews of USAC seasons. As I’d been fortunate enough to see the majority of that in person.
Remembering guys whom paved the road for the kids in open wheel racing today is a good thing I believe. It’s rich history is the cornerstone our sport was built on.

I always wondered how USAC announcements got posted on here so quick. Now I know. Darn if you don't learn something everyday.

God bless America and thanks for all the great racing events that have been posted. This is why bill built this house and thanks to mrs.g and the family for letting us to continue his dream of giving racing families the best of the best. Have fun and enjoy all the great things that we all love. Thanks.

I do not think USAC controls this site --YOU do if you do not want to read it do not click on it . I for one being a old timer enjoy USAC from the past to help me remember and enjoy years from the past . you and your mouse are in control

Richie, you’re the best! Thanks for taking the time to take some of us back to some of the best times in United States Auto Club history. I was front and center for a lot of that. Great to do a little recap and see names that spark memories of races gone by. Even got to see my name a couple times. My only regret is I haven’t had time to read them all

Folks, the forum is working exactly as designed, and is set to pick up newsworthy feeds from various predetermined sites. It just so happens that Richie Murray, with USAC, has been very busy resulting in multiple threads over the last week. If this is bothersome to you, you can always utilize the ignore feature that has been built into the site.
