I am very glad you guys seen an excellent 14 car race last year. Yes I know car count does not equal good racing. The last 2 USAC sprint car races I was at had 16 and 17 cars. While the features were good (no complaints at all) the heats were nothing but follow the leader, no passes at all. They even ran a last chance race where all cars qualified. That race had 1 pass in it. Car counts have drastically fallen off, but yet ticket prices have not dropped any. Do I go pay 15-20 bucks to watch apavement race, or do I go support a short track and pay 10-15 bucks to see twice as many cars, where all of the races mean something? I for 1 love watching the sprints on asphault but something has to change. I have no problem at all supporting a Usac sprint show but I will not go out of my way to attend one anymore. To the person that said the best of the best are still showing up..... hard to say that when I see several of the "BEST" running on dirt the same night.
