Just heard they've added winged sprints to both championship nights at Belleville. This really pisses me off. Do they really need a support class? The answer is no, but in wing country thy're bound to weasle their way in eventually, just like they've done at Oskaloosa this year. Modifieds would put on a much better race. On top of that, how can the promoter of Eldora justify putting winged sprints on the card with the 50th Anniversary of USAC non-wing sprints? USAC is the one oranization that stood for traditional sprints back in the day and you're gonna put wings in at your special race for them. That's just sacreligous to me. Part of the problem I have with them is that even 305 winged sprints turn faster laps than 410 wingless ones, which cheapens the non-wing product some. I wish USAC would stand up to this and put a stop to it at their races. Once they infiltrate you won't get rid of them. They are the cancer of sprint cars. If you are from Indiana and constantly enjoy non-wing sprints close to home, you cannot understand my hatred as an Iowan. I HATE WINGS!
