My problem here is not with USAC! plain and simple. It is with those promoters that are holding that vote. They are using that vote to hold a race track/promoter hostage. What is stupid about the whole thing is that there is a large enough mileage span between the all the tracks that car count isn't a problem... Fans aren't stupid.... They know where the big races are and they will be going to them. Drivers aren't stupid... they're going where the money is...
Joe Spiker has a job to do... that job requires him to promote Lincoln Park Speedway and create a successful racing program at Putnamville.
In my opinion... this decision by the current sprint car promoters did nothing to help the sport! Of course, I seriously doubt their interested in doing "good" for the sport... all they want is their "BIG PAY DAY". LPS is becoming a thriving race track again.... that is good for the sport.
If you build it the right way.... our sport will benefit and so will everyone else involved in it.
Thanks to Joe Spiker, LPS will be a thriving race track for many years to come.

So Joe wants a Sprintweek date only for the good of the sport and Jiggs and Dave and Mike and Tom only want one for the big pay day?????? If that's your opinion Bill, then I respectfully disagree.
