Wow, what an interesting thread. I haven't been here in a few days. and we're up to 13 pages. And it's full of a lot of interesting, cogent, and well-worded posts, as well as a few bashes.
Dan and Tony. as promoters, you have a different point of view of USAC, and that's OK by me - but you're not likely to resolve your difference with USAC by airing them here. Here's a thought - there would be no USAC if NO promoters sanctioned shows or rented their tracks to USAC. But some promoters and track owners do so and actually make a buck at it. So that says what it says.
Duke - I'd like to think that no one here disrespects your accomplishments as a driver. But until you can learn to treat other posters with some degree of courtesy, you'll continue to be seen as a bitter old man, by some. I know that I find both humor and disgust in some of your posts. And no reply is necessary, since I know that you don't care what I(or anyone else) think about you.
Spridge - Your well parsed posts are a pleasure to read, both well thought out and well worded. If others knew how passionately you loved the sport, they'd appreciate your efforts more. I'm glad that we had a chance to meet a few years back at Bloomington, and hope that you continue to do your fine work on behalf of sprint car racing.
Racerrob - Your perspective and honesty are enlightening and provide another perspective to some of the issues facong USAC an sprint car racing. Just keep putting that car on the track!
