But we can blame that on USAC too

People complain when the owners aren't consulted. People complain when the owners are consulted.

Just another Tuesday for the United States Auto Club.

That "reasonable sanctioning fee" is probably damn near nothing considering the hard-on Emmet has to stick it to USAC

Dumb rule.

You have to be told to slow down to avoid a spinning car? You probably shouldn't be racing then.

Fighting is great.

If you have the mental acuity of a 7 year old.

And people wonder why short-track racing has the image it does.

If no calls are made then it's anarchy; a free for all and you have a pit area full of wrecked race cars at the end of the night.

If it happens during the race, you apply the appropriate penalty. ...

So Tim, if I'm getting the gist of what you're trying to say, are you saying it's okay for anyone to bulldoze the leader on the last lap with no repercussions whatsoever?

1) The Mopar Million only drew 70 cars for $200,000 to win. The World 100 only pays $37,000 to win and regularly draws 200 cars. What incentive is there to pay the extra purse when the car count...

Tracks already complain about paying a $20,000 purse for a one division event, what makes you think they'd line up to sign up for a purse twice that, at least, for two divisions?



There's...

To give you an idea about how little 30,000 is, they wouldn't even register on the Nielsen guide and that's not good for sponsors.

You can notice a difference?

Ken Stout would scream his lungs off, if it was a wheelchair race.

Listening to him during the final days of ASA on Speed was the worst.

Building a track on a reservation is about as stable as building a racetrack a mile from a 20 year old housing community.

If I read that correctly, is Don's new tune that he thinks sanctioning bodies are going to control what AR and Hoosier charge for tires?

God, it gets better and better, each and everyday.

They need to get over it.

This is new management and the new management is on the chip about making the old cars work.

A horrible decision on many accounts.

The Sprint Cars are an unnecessary addition to the DTWC. There's plenty of other opportunities for good, high-paying sprint car races. Don't water down a...

This is a huge upset. Too bad it won't get the recognition it deserves because it's a California car.

He straight up out drove Sweet on the restart.
