Well, not having everyone Agree with an Idea, doesnt mean it wont work guys. Aero, I suppose you have a point, but in case you havent noticed, about all the new young talent you see coming into Sprints right now seems to be comming from out West, with the Money to Get Here..... There are some Great exceptions, with Brady Short and Jeff Bland just being 2 that have "stepped Up" in the last couple of years. I think Ott will make it as well, but for those few Most of the New Talent seems to be imported. Also, these 14 and 15 year old kids are tearing up a Lot of equipment, Not to Mention that its just a Matter of Time before we loose one of these kids and That Will Hurt Us All and not just in Racing... In This area, Sprint Cars are Cheaper to Run than a Mod, I know several of the Modified guys that might try and move up. This might also be a bigger Win for the Tracks. Wide tires to help work a track in is always a plus. Another thing to help make this work would be to "Incourage" self starters. Hey its a 305 not a 410, it shouldnt be that big a deal to set them up, but I said incourage, not mandate. Not for the first 2 years or so. You might also make part of there races, Winged Shows. I know that goes against the grain at Bloomington, but remember, your trying to make this a class to learn in and running Wings might give you a Better Chance getting on the schedule at some tracks. In other words, the tracks wont be worring there fans about there tracks running Wings, if they know its a Support Division. Lots to think about and for now its just that, food for thought.....Wolfe-e
