I remember running 3 shows all year for a while, but never quit the cars. The count of events rose to 10 to 12 a year , and then the new pos comes out. There goes everything.

USAC turned it's back on the champ cars for the ugly sob's, and damn near lost everything. I know there were some problems with the PRA, but because of the PRA, USAC has champ cars. If USAC had played it smart, which is asking for alot, they could have had both, if things continue the way they are, they'll end up with nothing.

They need to market what they have, which they haven't been able to do since Bill Hill left the midwest eons ago. It is as if they are looking for ways to fail, not succeed.A little old time hucksterism would go a long way. Tony Barhorst is the perfect example. An old time type of promoter who makes it work.
