Duke, I'm with you in longing for those so-called "good ol' days" with skinny tires and smaller engines. But we must live in the present.

HOW MANY CAN AFFORD TO RACE 3 OR 4 TIMES A WEEK? HIRE A DRIVER? AND RACE FOR $1000 TO WIN? WHAT IS A 410 ITS A SPEC ENGINE! WHY NOT A 500 CI. TURBO CHARGED! I'AM NOT SELLING THESE ENGINES BUT I'AM FOR CUTTING THE HIGH COST OF RACING MIDGETS AND SPRINTS CARS! THERE ARE A HELL OF A LOT MORE 360 CI IN THE USA THEN 410CI BLAME TED JOHNSON AND WOO FOR THE 410 $50000 ENGINES! THEN YOU ALL JUMPED ON BOARD INCLUDING USAC WHEN THEY HAD A 355 CI. RULE THAT YOU COULD RUN IN YOUR SPRINT & CHAMP DIRT CAR! ITS TIME FOR SOME COST CUTTING CHANGE! DO YOU OWN A 410 SPRINT CAR?:checkered:
