2- I did not have all the answers / nor do I claim to ever have.... I worked with a group of racers ..Men like Mike Devin, Gary Sakola, John Capels, Greg Staubb, Arnold Edgar, Norm Shields, all racers....they were men of their word, men that had a passion for racing...men that ALWAYS put safety first...basically the key word is they were MEN!!!
My point was why don't you be constructive in your comments about USAC instead of just telling everyone how much you dislike them. Everyone knows the pavement stuff is dying that's obvious, but what do you think will make it come back to life? Im still relatively young and would like to attend USAC races the rest of my life where you can see the best of the best. Im not a big pavement guy but most of the USAC guys have to run more than once discipline to do it for a living, so again tell us what you think they need to do to improve the sport? All this bashing does nothing but drive people away from the track because many people view this board and see what is being posted so that makes up their mind that they will not support this "dying" club. Do you think they have their hand in to many different things? Obviously you feel Kevin Miller has a lot to do with it. Can the pavement stuff rebound or is it beyond gone? Should they just do away with it and focus their time and money into the dirt series? Should they branch out more and gain the true national meaning? I just want to know what you think needs to be done in order to turn it around.
