I assume you are speaking of KYLE CUMMINS?

Good to see the spelling police are on duty. At least give me credit for getting Stockon correct.

You are correct.

Eye was on the Stockon spell. You get a C- for the day.

You would think a percentage of the revenues from Flo would be contributed towards the purse

[captrat]

Agree, only used that as an example, but $900 for 5th in a standard USAC purse is inadequate.

For two or three heats and a feature. You bet. For four heats and two consi's and a feature, NO.

No. But for 2 or 3 thousand you'll see Stockton in the 5 car, Cummings, grant has came out for unsanctioned shows and so has ballou and a few others.

I dont have answers. I wish I did though.

The question should be what is USAC's ultimate goal for Sprint car racing. When Ted Johnson started the outlaws his goal was to make Sprint car racing on par with NASCAR. A big time televised racing circuit. I don't think it quite made it to the heights he envisioned (During his lifetime) none the less he set the standard for a touring national series. I believe the powers to be at USAC are comfortable with the status quo that they are currently experiencing.

Again, USAC maintains 3 major divisions of racing. IF they focused solely on sprint cars (I personally hope that never happens) then maybe we would see more aggression in building it into a true nationwide series, with the accompanying purse structure. I don’t think that will happen.
A group like the MSCS, whose focus is solely on sprint cars, could look to begin such an expansion. I just don’t see it happening.
