Was trying to stay out of this war but had to point something that i noticed.......... Having heard about the usac silvercrown cars for years i had never had the chance to watch them until i got to help on a usac team owned by some friends of mine........I was very impressed with all the usac drivers and watched how hard they raced for every position........wether it was between 1st or 2cd or between 20th and 21st didn`t matter!!....... thay ran just as hard........now along come the goldcrown deal and all the hype that that`s what usac drivers need to get into nascar....more long track hi-speed experience.......Now my point! ........These names stand out to me Jeff Gordon,Tony Stewart,Ryan Newman,Dave Blaney,Yeley,Leffler,Kahne,Edwards,Schrader,Kurt and Kyle Busch.
I`m sure some of you in here can add many more to this list.........These guys got to Nascar from the USAC silvercrown series!!
Why did USAC need another division?? ........In my opinion USAC should have spent more time and effort with the divisions they had instead of starting the gold series. Sometimes the pie in the sky .........isn`t.
