The difference is that the WoO give their drivers' a place to race every single weekend, multiple times. USAC? You know as well as I do that no real racer and no for-real race teams are sitting on their hands for a weekend while USAC treks up to a place like Madison, WI to showcase 20% of the sanction's star drivers.
What is the incentive to get USAC drivers to quit showing up at local, non-sanctioned events? Punishment? That could be counterproductive, no?
