I saw where ASCS is getting 10 hours of tape delayed coverage on Versus.

I wonder why USAC can not get some kind of TV deal?

Apparently Emmett Hahn is a little better at marketing his product.

Not really. It's all about having the disposible funds to do it. It costs $$$$$ money to put those on. None of it is free except for NASCAR and IndyCar (they get paid). Even ALMS pays to have some races aired.

USAC has done some of that on Versus. Like Manzy last year comes to mind.

Versus would be glad to SELL USAC some Air Time.

USAC just needs a major sponsor to pay for it like Lucas Oil does for ASCS.

So once again it comes back to marketing. IMHO there is no better racing on dirt than the sprint cars in Indiana. I just wish that more of the companies who don't have the money to spend on NASCAR would support USAC.

I thought that USAC has a "Marketing Master" at the helm. Wait, that is just what folks were told. Kinda like FOX news.... you really should not believe what you hear all the time LMAO.

maybe if USAC would dump the fidgets,.25s and the off road bs and focused on the Sprints,Midgets and Silver crown they could get the job done

What exactly does USAC get from AMS Oil??? We all see the benefits Lucas Oil does for ASCS. Just curious what AMS Oil does for USAC that's noticeable besides having having their name in the PR releases.
