I enjoy all classes. I have my favorites but I will watch just about any class. My feeling has always been that good racing is a product of the track configuration and prep far more than it is the class of cars racing. I've seen some great non-wing races at tracks all over Indiana, like Kokomo. But I've also seen some incredible late model races at Fairbury. Both are great tracks that usually produce really competitive racing in any class. I've seen some excellent late model shows all over Illinois, and when they have sprints they are usually really good too. They had a great summer nationals race at Kokomo several years ago. I bet the POWRI race at Fairbury will be pretty good just because it is a great track.
However, I will say that some classes are just better suited to certain tracks or types of track prep. Non-wing sprints fit the short, bull-ring type tracks we have a lot of here in Indiana very well. At a place like Eldora they often aren't as entertaining. I love watching both World of Outlaws tours because I can see them race on so many different tracks. It often shows that they can be extremely exciting or a real snoozer. I've seen some really boring non-wing and late model races also, but it doesn't stop me from looking forward to the next one.
