For years I have heard USAC, its fans, its promoters lamenting the fact of what a great product we have, but no one seems to know about it. It would seem, at least from the outside, there is no real USAC business plan or proactive approach to solving this issue. I am aware of things like production costs, etc, but others seem to find answers to these issues. I await answers from those much more knowledgeable than I about this.

As others have noted, it's the $$$. NASCAR Images, a NASCAR subsidiary, produces the modified shows; the late models are likely produced by Lucas Oil, and the sponsor of the drifting show probably gets the show for free(no producyion costs except the dubbing. SO if somone will spring for the bucks, I'm sure that USAC will put together a show using Sean Buckley or Dean Mills' tape efforts.....
