USAC payed Benic tow money to not go to the TNT series and not other teams??? Plus rent an airplane to fly drivers to the Burg after Springfield so they wouldn't run at TnT at KC???
Maybe the Indiana track better start thinking about taking away their USAC dates of Indiana Sprintweek and Midgetweek????
This is all a good rumor but if true will dump the apple cart and open the door for the TnT series to take over open wheel racing.
Emmett Hahn has said he wants a 30 to 40 TnT series paying good money next year. This will make that easy to do.
More to come I'm sure.
What do you think of this???
Very interesting. I do know that Houston Raceway Park just noted that they intend to have sprint cars (non wing of course) date(s) next year. . . . .
This will be the first time in over 21 years (as long as I have been living here) that the Houston area has run a sprint car race without wings.
