If you want to win you need a small corporation (something like a brick and block plant or a spegetti sauce company for example). Racing is in the blood of so many in the west side of Indianapolis but they cant do it! Rice, the Carters, Marvel and all the others should be legends but they simply cant afford it. Work on a car, build cars, paint cars, there are alot of ways to be involved, but unless your a semi millionare you cant race a sprint car!
It's really to bad you feel that way. Some people just enjoy driving a sprint car. They don't have to win to get the thrill of racing. I have a pretty good idea who the looser is!
