I heard that the CRA and USAC got togather to form USAC WEST with races only in CA and AZ, no cross county trips. Not many people can take off work for 3 4 weeks at once

I dona"t want to argue BUT I don"t think that would cover fuel cost for out and back. Then add on hotel meals, parts for race car etc etc.

Only Lincoln Speedway has a 410 Sprint race on their schedule during the Knoxville Nationals this year.
