The Whole Sprint Car scene has been cut into 87 different ways , split car counts & in my discussions with fans it has drove them away
On the West Coast just in USAC we have had USAC/CRA , Western States, Western Classic , WC360's all running under various rule packages & has fractured the car counts to the point that the Oval Nats/Western World draw car counts in the forty's , with vary few cross over in cars ( if you were under one rule package you would prob had 60-70+ cars @ each event last year )
2 years ago I talked to teams, promoters, Hoosier Tire etc (mostly with positive response) to do some testing to come up with a formula to get 410/360 & dirt & pavement cars to be competitive against each other on both surfaces
Still waiting to hear from USAC (glad I did not go on a hunger strike
)
