This is just a guess on my part. While crowds have been good, the car counts have not. Some national teams were pushed to the limit last year, with the number of races. It would seem like a logical place to eliminate some races. I am sure no one would want to see a short field.

Nope! Sold out to the World Racing Group and the midgets will be racing in Missouri and Illinois under a different sanction.

Right, but you have 2 or less teams following all the races then will anyone be happy with a 13 or 14 car field?

So now you want me to consider the financial sustainability of teams or long term outlook, rather than my own selfish interests????
How UnAmerican!
