I just finished watching this weeks episode, and i have to say i really love this show. Randy Bernard in the 2 sitter at the fairgrounds with Clauson, Thomas Sheckler (sp) running a mod there, they were also saying he is wanting to try his hand at a few usac races. I think this show is a good thing for both USAC or sprint car racing in general and IndyCar.

They have had 3 shows so far and all of them had a USAC segment.

I have seen all 3 episodes and I really enjoy the show. I just wish it was on a more popular channel so it could reach a wider audience. I really think that this show could help attract new fans to open wheel racing if it was put in their face. All the talk of putting the dirt miles back on the schedule...OH I WISH THEY WERE SERIOUS!!! They should set it up where all the big teams can trade an older Indy car for somebodys spare silver crown car then make the older cars legal on the ovals so Darland can use it...haha

I really love all the hype and attention Clauson is getting. He deserves every bit of it. I just wish Darland, Kinser, Yeley, Clayton, etc were also involved...

Props to Randy Bernard for digging to find the roots of open wheel racing. I just hope his efforts to appease the fans are genuine and continue to help bring in American short trackers...I very much hope the work thus far in that direction is not a one-off hype magnet but a sincere effort to involve the USAC crowd in the top level of the game.

I have just seen the one most recent episode, and it was really enjoyable. I didn't know it was on until recently. I set my DVR to record it. My DVR has a mind of its' own sometimes and it didn't record the original air time, but I managed to catch the midnight repeat.
