I strongly disagree, all you have to do is look at the United Midget Racing Association alumni to prove that statment wrong. Is this the message we want to send young racers that may be thinking of TQ's, that it is a waste of time and you won't gain anything from the experience? Just asking for anyone else's thoughts on this subject. Thanks.
Is this why Terry Goff has made a career of running TQ's? He never moved up.
I like the TQs on short tracks and they put on a good show, but places like The 'Burg are too big for them.
When was the last USAC champion to come from TQs?
