Saw this on another site and thought there might be some interest. This is the first that I have heard of it.

I'll bet that in three years this wil be just like the Focus series: Over priced engines forcing people to abandon it due to costs.

USAC is runnin Sprints,Midgets,& Silver Crown into the ground.... Why not start at the lower levels and ruin it there to....

I use to think USAC was bar none the best around... with every announcement it makes me sicker..... Forget all these other divisions focus on the Big 3 that gets smaller and smaller every year....

Feel sorry for the kids in Quarter Midgets, The price of everything has just doubled since USAC has got involved....No more Family fun, Now its "my kids the next Jeff Gordon" lets SPEND SPEND SPEND....

Boy I miss grassroots racin

I can tell you have no clue what you are talking about!! USAC has helped the kids tons!! maybe you should stop out by the Kokomo Quarter midget club and ask around.. USAC has done more for them in one year then QMA ever done!!!And they have saved us money!! What USAC has done in the past is the past.

KSmith15 · 1/16/10, 12:48 PM

I hope this is true.... And if it is I stand corrected on my remarks about not helpin Quarter midgets out.... Itake that as an invitation and would be glad to stop by the KQMC I love what the KQMC stands for and was worried that USAC would eventually ruin it.... Im glad to hear that it hasnt.... But same token USAC still has too many irons in the fire.... n most of those irons are no longer warm

Your more than welcome at KQMC!! I have to agree they have alot of irons in the fire right now..... As far as the topic of this post YES i agree Quarter midget racing has to many classes.... But i do think the Briggs deal is for the better....the Deco's are way to over priced...YOu can buy a micro for the price of a good Deco engine... Just my 2 cents..

This can't hurt as some of these kids and their friends someday might be your next drivers and crewchiefs (owners?). Were will the future of openwheel racing be if these kids do not have anywhere or anyone to race?

The future openwheel racers can start in karts.
