Things are just ebbed away as the automobile, and the niche of racing them, has become less and less important in the public eye.
USAC in the past had huge allies that sat on fair boards, business people in the community. This is exactly how we lost the Indiana State Fairgrounds. Tom Binford cast a huge shadow across the state, he had connections. Tony's death in '77 followed by the plane crash and then the split, along with the general malaise toward the automobile and we are where we are now.
I am very thankful that I live in Indiana and it is not lost on me had I not been born here I don't know if I would have been such a enthusiastic fan.
