That's easy, it's The Four Crown. It features everything that is good about USAC, and everybody wants a win at The Big E.

That's also why it makes me just a bit sad that the All-Stars apparently have to be attached to it in order for it to be a successful event. Or The Outlaws, even, to be honest. I miss the old 2-day format: qualifying and heats on Friday, hotlaps and a bunch of mains on Saturday. I know it's never coming back, though.

I guess USAC itself left this open to happen when they axed the stock car division.
I never did mind the modifieds there, though. Hewitt, Hines, Darland, and others made that interesting enough.
