Not sure if someone already brought it up but I think John is on to it. USAC National Series is all dirt, but from what I understand there will still be a separate pavement series. Similar but not the same as the previous regional series, 12 races with a new tire rule coming out. Possibly only 2 tires a night or something around that. Tracks ORP, Winchester, Salem, Toledo, Anderson? with a smaller purse. Not 100% positive on all of the facts, but this is coming from a reliable source. Now teams won't have to worry about spending the bucks on expenses to be able to compete against the huge budgets (besides testing, but that is track revenue not USAC) and the National teams don't HAVE to run them. I think it is a step in the right direction and hopefully it works and draws cars otherwise it is probably the last straw...
