Re: USAC Sprints to open 2011 season in Flori
 

Benji Lyons, co-promoter at USA Raceway, told me by e-mail that he knew nothing of USAC's plans to race in Florida on those dates until he read the news release. He's miffed, saying no one from USAC had called or given him a heads-up. "So to answer the question, the Copper on Dirt will not be a USAC-santioned race, but we are exploring other options," he said in the e-mail.

Hope this information helps those contemplating travel plans.

Be careful Duke, you have been such a good boy lately. I'd hate to see you ruin it.

So instead of looking for another date, he's just ditching usac? Way to support the 70 plus teams who had nothing but good things to say about you after last year Benji.

I doubt that you will see the 410s @ Perris go anywhere. For someone who is so far away from California - what do you know? Especially about ASCS - who had scheduled three shows at Perris and were forced to cancel the last one due to a lack of interest.

Was not the reason the last race was canceled, Bob. That was only a tentative date on our schedule as they had the same date at another track, but there was some kind of problem with it. If things did not work out and they did not have anywhere to run that weekend, we would have brought them back.
