We will most likley always be a support class filling in time for the Big Boys. It's hard going 100 miles to a race let alone 400 or 500 when it pays less than a thousand to win and or a hundred to start. Most of us are over the hill as far as trying to move up in racing. We know our limits and race within them, we are kinda of like tq's and ARCA used to be. I have seen several drivers come race with us and move up and do good in more expensive race cars. We have several drivers racing every week with us that could do very well in higher forms of racing that choose to race with us because they don't want the lifestyle of a full time racer. We should be and are a development class. I went to a go kart race last week end and watched the next up and cooming racers. What I saw was a bunch of Dale Earnhardt wanna-be's pushing and banging there way to the front. We can teach these kid's that racing open wheel does have un-spoken rules of etiquette, about blocking, charging, and racing room. I think that's our job in racing right now and I think for the most part we are doing a pretty good job.
It would be good to get together once a year for a big race and right now I'm thinking Brownstown and fun-fest right now we are looking for sponsors and money to make a little better purse.
