After reading many posts about the USAC Silver Crown meeting held earlier this week, I thought I might chime in to clear any misunderstandings.
1. The focus of the meeting was with the "new" car owners. As Jason and I were only 1 week on the job, please forgive us if you were overlooked as a car owner. We have a sense of urgency to address the hot issues, Silver Crown being one of many. Any car owner not attending may feel free to email me directly (kevin@usacracing.com) for a complete update.
2. The goal of the meeting was for us to get up to speed with owners on the direction of the new car. As I have followed many chat forums over the past few months, there are some very opinionated comments on the new car from owners and fans (yes, they are ugly), old pavement cars, and the dirt cars versus new cars.
3. The meeting was very productive in establishing a vision which will be solidified at a meeting date in mid January (tentative, January 18th). After agreement, this new vision will be announced prior to the first race in February.
I hope you will find myself and the team at USAC to be open and honest with our plan and vision for all series. We are hard at work reviewing direction for Silver Crown and Ford Focus series, 2 areas we feel need our immediate attention. The other key area that is being addressed with a sense of urgency is marketing. I think you will find a fresher, edgier USAC as we roll out our game face this year.
Stay Tuned.
Kevin
