Is this view a little antiquated? The last Silver Crown race I went to had 15 cars, sadly none of the drivers are not nationally known racers outside of the non-wing race capital of the world. I also find it funny that people complain about adding another class of cars, when that added class is what keeps the price of the event down. These same people will complain about price increases as well. Times change. Sadly it can affect a lot of our greatest memories.

Seriously!! I couldn't agree more!
