I Guess the ones who replied to my Driver Panel didn't understand it or don't agree, That's OK. Just a Idea.

Most of the USAC guys, have raced with these kids at non USAC races ANYWAY. No Way out, MSCS, KISS or a weekly show. A simple majority vote is needed that they race clean and aren't a inherent danger to themselves and others.

But never-mind 15 it is. I seen kids 14 who's ability allowed them to swap the lead with some of the best and 35 year olds who never could.

Like others have said, some of em have ten years or more racing under their belt and while a crash in a sprint can be worse and harder, Its not always the case. You could flip a 600 or speedster the length of the straight. too.
