I still subscribe to AARN. As far as I know it's the only weekly racing paper left. At one time I subscribed to NSSN, AARN, MARC Times, Mid-America, Gator, Cavalcade and Speedway Scene. My mail carrier hated me.
You laugh because I'm different. I laugh because you're all the same. Copied from the back of the #16 supermodified.
Being born in Michigan until moving to California at 18, the MARC Times was my favorite. My dad used to buy copies of that along with NSSN, and Mid-American Auto Racing News at Flat Rock or Toledo Speedways every week. Wish I had hung on to all of them.

Had I been your mail carrier, you might not have appreciated me reading your papers on my lunch hour.

Exactly. Companies design websites for "traffic". They want and measure viewers clicking on their websites. USAC would be no different. IOW viewers had it made for years.

You didn't have Checkered Flag Racing News? Thinking that was out of the Wisconsin area 70s-80s maybe.

I think they would get more traffic if the link was posted here...(click on the thread, click on the link; come back to this site to talk about it, etc). TJ's and Hoseheads continue to have great coverage - I do understand this is not the same kind of site as those are. Like you said, we had it for many years though...so oh well; I guess...

Its been explained on here why we arent getting the results from USAC. I'm not sure what you didnt understand. When USAC redid their website it broke the process that copied the results. Bill wrote it and obviously cant fix it. Unless you would like to learn programming and fix it yourself then I guess we will all have to live with it. The number of times you mention it on your posts will not make it magically happen. I suppose if you want to do us all a favor you could copy and paste it here from the USAC site The ASCS process is still working so thats why you still see theirs. Also Richie is way to busy to do it manually so you can probably forget about that too. Any questions?
