Before the Board goes wild with speculation, let me offer some insight:

A "Big Event" is Indiana Sprint Week. Anytime you get fans traveling to a multi-day event which includes camplng and provides an atmosphere around the racing, consider we have moved beyond a "race" and to an "event". We have some of these in our Portfolio at USAC today. Just not enough. We do need more "events". That does not mean we lose single night races.

As far as fan count at local shows, my disappointment stems from 400-800 fans at a show. That is unacceptable. 4000 fans at a USAC show is a great turn-out.

Just for clarification:

We are not going to all pavement races
We are not altering our format
We are not changing tradition
We are trying to strengthen our fan base
