I realize that I'm wasting my time because nothing I or anyone else says is going to change your mind. That's fine, because all your statistics, links to "white papers", and research isn't going to change anyone else's either. In your lengthy rants you've pretty much trashed USAC, IRL, and people we consider as heroes; dirt racers everywhere. No doubt you have great knowledge of world motorsports history. But after painfully reading your posts, I'm convinced you have no clue about what makes a racer. Being a racer is not developing a word-view business plan in order to market yourself to the rich and powerful. It's about getting dirt under your fingernails at 3 AM in order to rebuild an engine (sometimes us hicks call them motors). It's about trying to scrape together enough money to buy a new tire. And then it's about summing more testosterone than most men will ever have, getting their elbows up, standing on the gas, and RACING. Personally, I don't give a flip that people in Europe (and you) don't care about our racers, We do!
