And for Chuck who says....a reminder that POWRi has had this race scheduled for months, also pre-USAC involvment.

October 4 will be the second race this season that USAC has scheduled against POWRi.....August 6 the other.

Somebody explain to me the big hard-on that some on here have for POWRi :confused:

....Just observations
This is strictly my personal opinion here.

I have been to many POWRI shows and talked with both Kenny and TIm and have an enormous amount of respect for both of them for what they have built for a racing series. The way they run things at the track is strictly professional and displays in my opinion what a race series should be and the way a race series should be run. Both Siner and Brown come across as genuine in their thanks that they give to every driver and team that comes to the races. I was actually shocked the first time I saw that as I had never seen nor heard of any series owners or officials doing that. The entire time I was at Springfield in the pits I never once saw a USAC official at any teams transporter thanking them for supporting the race by being there. Another example would be UMARA. I never have seen anyone walk trailer to trailer and thank the drivers for coming out and supporting the race or the club.

To me that is why POWRI gets a huge thumbs up for the way they do things.
