Unfortunately for me Usac is my only viable option for Non Wing sprint cars. I supported Extreme last year as well in hopes that there would be more Non Wing sprint car racing across the country. It didn’t work out.
Your are now the second person to have evaluated me regarding my psyche and now my wealth. Who would have thought based on your statement and Dr Funk’s analysis that you guys would be so so worried about an individual from Pa whom you have never met and really don’t know. Robert Ballou made a statement after the race. Some agree with him and most others don’t. I appreciate all of this unwanted concern for me but I’m gonna be ok.
It’s sad but with all of the time and energy you two spent analyzing me you could have possibly brokered a deal between the OConners and a streaming service to offer a PPV option to see Dave Darlands final race. Something I’ll bet many fans across the country would have paid for if they weren’t able to attend. I would have jumped to the front of the line to congratulate you both. Sadly instead you chose the route to come after me. I wish I knew all the type people who could do it but I don’t. Congrats to Dave on a great career. If had all of the wealth I’m accused of maybe I could afford to go out and come home before leaving for Okla. I’m not so I can’t. 🤷*♂️
Please for your sake and mine worry about your plate and let me worry about my plate. Thanks again for the concern.

How would a fan broker a deal between a track and a streaming service at this late of a date? I think if the parties involved thought it would be profitable, they would have done it. I really hope you have fun in Oklahoma. I am on the fence being able to go. I have some obligations that Friday that I need to honor.
The reason you are going is because USAC offers best paying and best run programs. They get quality cars and should get decent local support. I am glad to that have worked to get into new areas, and have brought in good sponsors to keep the racers going. They have a pretty good field of teams hitting all the races.
As a guy who saw Dave when he started I hope it is a good safe night. I still remember him beating Bobby Kinser for his first win. I was also at his most recent win.
