Honestly USAC hasn't done anything to improve their status in decades, just status quo. It's still a regional series based out of Indiana. In both situations with WoO coming into non-wing racing and non-wing drivers leaving for tin tops the track promoters need to be looked at. Indiana tracks don't seem to want and step up for big time races. Whenever the wings go into Indiana it's almost always someone leasing the track for a show. The promoters don't seem to want to have big time races.

I never said that it helps anyone. My point was that if the WRG/WoO wanted to take over non wing sprint car racing, they could very easily do it and all it would take to get started would be to make some non wing shows a part of their championship points. Combine that with their superior marketing and USAC would soon be a distant second as a sanctioning body. I much prefer to watch a non wing sprint car show, but the level of promotion along with the atmosphere and pageantry/hype that happens at a WoO show is far superior to anything I have ever seen at a non-wing show.
