By the way Fisher, I do(Sorry to burst your bubble there Fisher and Funk), I put my money where my mouth is. I just wish someone on 16th street, who cared for the racing, not just the cash ran the show there now. Maybe I'm a cranky old man, but I started working on USAC sprint cars in 1977, Champ Dirt cars in 1978. I've been around a while, and yes I'm mad at USAC, call it bashing if you will. But having seen what it was, and to watch it fall to the level it has pi$$e$ me off.

Yes, I know they can't be blamed for all the problems in racing, but when you have an exclusive product, which they do with Silver Crown, and then try to pi$$ it away is beyond me. In 2011 28 cars were at DuQuoin, in 2013 15 took the green . It isn't the economy that did that, it was the Ignite move. The way it seems is that if it ain't broken, don't fix it . Too bad USAC doesn't understand that.


Call me an old fool if you will , I'll always be a Dirt Champ Car fan first and foremost. It just doesn't mean I have to be a fan of the organization that is trying to kill them.
