If you watch USAC/CRA shows from Perris on Flo the crowds are worse than horrible.
They interviewed Kruser and Super Rickie one night and they both were hopeful opnwhl racing could be saved in SC. They pleaded with the fans to bring a friend next time they come to Perris.

It's all part of a master plan by USAC to partner with CRA and other clubs to drive people away from dirt tracks so they won't have to travel out of Indiana in future seasons.
