It's plum simple. When I started out touring with the QMA CIRCUIT BACK IN THE 50'S AND 60'S we stayed at and were kicked out of a lot of Holiday Inn's. Most folk would consider me more of a Smart A$$ than smart but at my age I really don't care. I do care dearly about this new form of Midget racing. Like going back to our roots so to speak. If the young guys developing it use just a little common sense they can hopefully come up with a set of guidelines that can make spending tons of money on an engine to be of very little benefit.

I see it as just a progression from Mini Sprint Racing. New motorcycle motors are becoming harder to find and increasing in cost every year. There is a lot of competition just to find a low mileage motor. On the other hand there is an abundance of late model 2.5 liter automotive motors in every scrap yard all over the USA. By allowing both Motorcycle power>Automotive power>chain drive and drive shaft cars race together we open up a lot more possibilitys. Heck I am for allowing older Full Midgets to race also and perhaps even the new midgets if some form of easily enforceable restriction could be developed.

One suggestion I came up with was bringing back the 10" Right rear tire. You, being a racer from that era what is your opinion on using tires for restriction? Would it even up a 150-200 HP power advantage? Would you allow the lower powered cars to race on 12"? Or as most people seem to think I am just Bloviating (Got that word from Bill O'reilly )

Maybe you could take a vacation down south this February and check these DII Midgets out, looks like the pay is going to be pretty good?
