I wonder the same about why teams stay away when USAC shows up. 50 some cars showed up at Eldora for a race that paid how much? I can start a USAC sprint car feature and make more than 3rd at most local shows. The issue with USAC traveling is, there isn't non wing racing anywhere else for the most part. I am going to run the Eastern Storm for Mike Heffner. He said he has always wanted to run it but his drivers don't want to run without a wing.
Guys used to want to race with the best. Now they want to go where USAC isn't for much less money. The way I got better was going to get my but kicked at a west coast USAC midget race. Then I came back to AZ and won.
