Racing is already surrounded with attempts at breaking the rules. Pick any cliché you wish that applies, “if you ain’t cheating you ain’t trying” there’s more. And that’s just for what’s posted as income. Now throw in a potential windfall from an adjusted outcome, and there you have incentive for foul play. I don’t gamble on sports, so I don’t really care. I do however care about the integrity of the sport, which is already dubious at times by some opinions. Do I think any shady stuff will happen, I doubt it. Do I think this will help USAC’s exposure, not much. Will USAC find some revenue from this, possibly. All in all I think it’s unnecessary, but I don’t run the show, I just buy tickets and subscription’s to my favorite racing on the planet.
