Personally, I'm partial to non wings, as most of the people on this site probably are. I just wanted to see what people had to say and wanted to see some of your thoughts.
No doubt that the wingless sprint cars put on a better display of driver abilities but the Knoxville fan base are jaded and without wings the gate would suffer. When the USAC sprints ran Knoxville two years ago it was among the best sprint car races ever held at Knoxville with a lot of passing and two and three abreast racing through the corners, and this is just the opinion of an old man who has seen wingless, winged and CAGELESS sprint cars.
