Bill, what did the previous President make? Were you guys all volunteers back then? Why don't you talk about how much your family made a night back then? I was working at a track when the promoter asked how much each person made and you were making more than I do at my full time job. I get that you are bitter, you have beat this dead horse to death. What event like the Smackdown did you have while you were there? $10,000 to win $1000 to start? Did you guys have anything like that? How about the Silver Crown, weren't you part of the next generation car that failed. I will make you a deal, if you will sign a release to USAC to release your pay records, I will push them to release Mr Miller's and we will see how things stack up.
I always thought you were a bright spot during the stagnant years of USAC, but your bitterness has changed my opinion. At times you offer insight that no one else can. I agree with you about it being a cult following, but you have to grind the axe to the point of where it is hard to take you serious.
I have been going to a lot of USAC races since 1982. Not that my opinion matters, but I think things are on the upswing. Remember how many cars you took to Williams Grove? 2 Steve Butler and Rick Ungar. So by comparison things aren't so bad. Just like things weren't bad back in the day.
