David-
I got out of it what I expected to get out of it. As D.O. stated, this interview was more for the "non-USAC" crowd than the staunch supporters. Honestly, if anybody wants any questions answered, look him up at the track or, gasp, call into the USAC Radio Show when he's on there. I have gone right at him with some concerns of mine, and I will continue to do so....
Miller has admitted that he is not as savvy on the techincal side. Quite honestly, the problems have escalated under a regime that was not his, and he has a fairly pinpoint plan on what problems they are trying to fix. They have a timeline, and I'm interested to see what they can do to CONTROL costs. I do not feel that times are nearly as grim as some indicate - I see no reason why Don Moore's midget would not be competitive during Indiana Midget Week, which is a good thing.
It is not USAC's job to get drivers to the IRL or NASCAR. They need to be worried about getting drivers into USAC and making them happy to be there....everything else takes care of itself!
And finally - he gave a pretty straight-forward answer as to what will be happening with the New Generation cars. It was a terrible idea to begin with, and most did or should have been able to see that. With that, I think they are doing all that they can with the new cars. No one wants them - and it's going to take some serious ideas to figure out where to get races and how to pay them!
That's all I've got...still have some serious concerns about things, but I've had some encouraging talks and I try to be optimistic about what's coming....
