This could benefit the drivers in the end which I am totally for. However, as a fan I'd hate to see it the way things currently are. The great thing about living in IN is you can see all the great drivers pretty much every weekend (unless USAC is "out of town"). It's nice to show up at a local event and see those guys anytime you want to. I'd hate to see that go away. WoO is a true national series. USAC right now is pretty much a 70-80 percent IN series. I'd hate to see those running for USAC points not be able to compete when and where they want to. It's tough because I want bigger purses, but don't want to see drivers have to sit races out that they would normally attend.

Now, if this means more USAC shows than local shows that is fine with me. I don't mind paying the extra money if the field has all the heavy hitters. If the number of USAC shows around IN dirt tracks stays the same, then there would be a lot of "sitting out" of weekends and I am not for that. I see both sides of it.
