I like watching Jason Sides and he is always friendly when he has time. This has turned into a no-win for both Sides and WoO.

NOW: Is anyone thinking about why WoO has this rule?
The problem starts once the WoO schedule is made public. Tracks/promoters within a few hours of a track hosting a WoO event, where the schedule has a day or two break, can take advantage of what the series has put together. Using some crafty PR, they can say all of the WoO drivers will be there to race. They could even offer the WoO regulars no entry fee considering how may fans will fill the stands. And, certainly, the drivers want to race as much as they can just to pay the bills.

However, taking advantage of what WoO, or any touring series, has to offer without paying a sanctioning fee is either smart or unscrupulous depending on your position.
(ie: Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?)
