Also, tough to say MavTV let us down, even in jest. They have given us what we longed for. LIVE dirt open wheel racing on TV.
I see what your saying. I put him in the top 3 because I think the jury is still out on some of the drivers. Larson would absolutely be the best if he would stay long enough which is not the case. Loyet has moved to sprints now. Daum and Hagan are very capable of some more great things for them in the future. Tracy Hines is a great driver and is good in everything he gets in , I was just limiting it to midgets. Thank you MAVTV for the broadcast, but please showcase more about other drivers besides the crybaby Swindell's. I know what they have done at the Chili Bowl should be recognized , but countless other individuals should get some publicity for their work in midget racing.

Kuhn's retired now, Cottles got a bent up car and Hines got the transfer.
Tracy Hines had nothing to do with it. Ramey is the car that benefitted and grabbed the final transfer spot.

Watching drivers fight on TV is not going to do the sport any good. Just makes us look like a bunch of rednecks to the general population. They do not understand.

I agree 100%, but then again, when I was in college a big group of guys got together to watch WWF WWE whatever the heck it was. My point is it's the dumbest sport known to man, but they play hero vs. villains and it draws a crowd. A fight in national TV drew a crowd to nascrap, maybe dirt open wheel needs hero's and villains.

Certainly agree that we need hero's and villains.
