Happy Independence Day America next week!! We are a year away from the Macon debacle. Bacon has left to suck at wing racing and comes back to Usac with decent success. Of course no one knows if he is legal. Spridge still has a job but when his boss hangs his hat on changing the old office into a dance floor I guess quality is not what Usac is about. On this board Usac posts nothing and hides. The ultimate two defenders of the shield are relatively quiet. Funk is MIA and 55 does his best to protect. I live out East and the level of teams who travelled here was good but small. Non Wing racing is not what everyone knows so Usac needs to promote the product in a way to get noticed. This all has to do with promotion from Speedway Indiana. Saturday nite at Port Royal the sprint cars and worse SC didn’t have large fields. The sprint cars ran for 6g at Port while there was a 250g and a 100g race to win for sprint cars in other parts of the country. This is totally a disaster out of Speedway. They had 4 paid people on the broadcast yet only paid 6g to win. It can still be the best on track racing in the country but it’s clear due to tons of pork up top and no promotion no one knows what they are missing.
I stood in the drivers meeting at WG and thought to my self a 10th grader could have run what I witnessed. The same sheet of procedure for years and the guy reading it looked like it was his first time and we know it’s not.
I’m not a favorite on this board I know. It pains me to watch this inept group continue to lead the decline of real sprint car racing. I’ll travel next week to Kokomo and LPS in hopes of quality track prep and great racing. I still continue to wish there was a group in charge that had the vigor to promote for bigger and better events to get these teams the money they deserve.
