I remember when Sam started the MSCS series because I was one of the guys who DIDN'T want to see the wings come off!
As I remember it, Sam started the series for the guys who wanted to run "NON WINGY" on a regular basis. All the local tracks were debating whether or not to go non wing or not. I remember that the series was for the low budget guys/teams that wanted some regular scheduled events and didn't want to travel all over the country. The tire rule was put into place because they were available at a considerable lower cost than regular tires. As I remember it they were $140 and would last several races. I don't remember the steel block part of it or all the other rules but I know it was good series for the regular guys.
By saying "demise" I simply meant that the series is not at all now what it was in its conception. Its a good series but thats just what it is. Anybody that pays $10k and $5k to win is gonna draw all the good cars and drivers. In my opinion the series is just a USAC support series now and thats OK. But it isn't the series it started out to be.
