Seems to me they're a little late. Mustsee does a good job at there shows, and I can't see how USAC can improve on them.

On another thread a gentleman said Must See is having trouble paying the drivers. If true there may be an opening for USAC to exploit this if, indeed, it is true.

be careful what you wish for, and what does nascrap have anything to do with it?? all you need is a suitcase full of money and your in there. Besides, the last guy that "made it" did his damage on dirt more than pavement.

A question for the fans in the stands. Are winged pavement sprints more entertaining than traditional pavement sprints?

Why would USAC be interested in any pavement division? They already have killed off two.

Entertaining? Yes. More entertaining? No.

Nope. Leave the wings at home. Just my personal opinion. I do go watch a few every year but if I didnt live 5 minutes from Anderson Speedway where they run quite a bit I wouldnt go watch em at all but the convienience factor plays into that. As far as a USAC sactioned winged pavement series I agree with what someone has already mentioned in a way, just something else for USAC to run in the ground and kill off. I really wish I didnt feel that way and it was back to the days of old with USAC when they had 30-35 or more cars at EVERY series show. But unfortunately Ive seen how much they have destroyed since the "good ol days".
