I wana hear it the way you meant it, but it sure sounded to me like you had some inside info and that USAC and the teams all decided not to go out there anymore...heck, maybe with Diesel prices it was that simple...I just can't believe if two or three promoters/tracks wanted USAC (at their standard sanction rate), they would just say no thanks we give up on PA...

What I can say is this: IF there are any cars around in the garages out there, perhaps they will feel like they have more of a shot to compete with this new series than USAC...whoever goes out there will be dependent on producing a full field. It will be interesting to see if there are more local guys that show up for this one or the USAC races of recent...I have NO idea how compatible the ARDC cars (engines) are nowdays...(but maybe a few teams might decide to throw their 8 year old engine in to run this new deal and go for a top 5, than USAC and hope for a top 12...or run their current OEM based style engine...if they can...)
