That's the fairest way to do it, and it IS possible, as long as people WANT to do it. Personally, midgets is my favorite type of open wheel racing, and to see it in the shape it is in really sucks. Something has to be done with it, and it's gotta become more affordable. Midgets were always a grassroots deal, and now if you want to show off that you have money, you race a midget.

I didn't say I agreed with the way things were going!!! When it comes to micro racing (which I did in Indiana for 3 years 2003-2005 and thoroughly enjoyed) that cam be changed as it is a family/hobby sport. In midget racing we are fighting with 2 bigger issues.
Corporate sponsors/Corporate run teams. They have the money so they have the ears of all involved.
Number 2 The Parents that are only in midgets for a year or 2 that are just using midgets as the stepping stone to bigger and better things. Again the money has the ears of all of the organizations.
Again I don't agree with it but at times it feels like pissing in the wind.
