We've got some people expressing their opinions.

We've got a car owner telling us how their opinions are wrong and how dedicated he and all the other car owners are to the cause.

Then we've got a builder. Well a car owner/builder. He didn't identify himself as a builder until he felt compelled to defend his purchase. He didn't answer any of the questions concerning the value, construction etc. that either a car owner or especially a car builder would be best qualified to answer. Instead he let DO carry his water for him.

This project is doomed as my friend R22 would say. It will either become a club racer deal with track rentals and no spectators or TV or it will just outright fail.

When people that are in the know withhold information it's usually because they are hiding something. If this was such a good deal they would be providing verifiable answers.
Most everyone involved in this know who I am and I shurly have nothing to hide. The GoldCrown series is owned by Bruce Ashmore and he talks to us owners and or builders so yes we do know stuff that has not been released to the public and anything that he tells us is held confendential untill Bruce wants it released some of the answers to your questions could not be answered with out it leading to something he does not want released. I would say D.O has a pretty good idea where Bruce is leading this and as he has said we will see where it goes.

You say you are not bashing my deal but then you say "backwoods to main street". Do you really feel that way about the Silver Crowns? If you really do then maybe an owner like you isn't what the series needs.

When you fell like coming off your "High and Mighty" kick, lets talk otherwise forget it.
Backwoods to main street is just an expression as to where I would like to see Silvercrown and Goldcrown go. When you look at a series (any series) when it rises to the top then falls on hard times it becomes very hard to keep owners in that series they retire or find other things to spend their time and money on. So take the SC series as an example how many teams have we lost(Your the journalist you figure that number) Then add back in the new teams that have come into the SC series I know of 2 in the last 5 years. If I have come across to you or anyone else as being HIGH AND MIGHTY I truly apologise that is not my goal. I want to see the Silvercrown cars back at places where they belong. As for the Goldcrown cars you dont like them there not your cup of tea so be it. I like them and will continue my support of them. As for my SilverCrown car I will gladly make you one heck of a deal if you want to throw your hat into the car owners arena. I cant justify the maint and cost of a SC car for 3 pavement races a year and as of today that is all they have for 2010. I am a big supporter of USAC they have set the standard for several years they offer the best insurance and support for injured drivers. Jason Mccord and Jason Smith have personally helped me with getting different things I needed to go to a race. So all I want is for USAC to take the seat at the head of the table and lead again. The Goldcrown series has a strong leader I have no concern there.
