Hey folks, Greg will let everyone know of his status when it becomes necessary. Until then, Greg is employed at USAC. The man has always revered that organization and even accomplished his dream of winning a USAC race (at IRP). They couldn't have a more dedicated employee. Shame on Mr.Miller if Greg's termination becomes fact but, as I speak to you now, Greg is a USAC employee. Nobody loves this sport more than Greg. Again, he's a USAC guy as of today. However!!! MSCS!!!! or any other organization, call this man!!! he'll build your organization. He is a tireless worker and he could sell you a jet-ski in Alaska or a snowmobile in Florida. USAC will wither on the vine without him. I'm tempted to get back in the promotion business and Greg will be my first hire if USAC let's him go!

Greg is a USAC guy true and true. He's still there in his office. However, if rumors of his demise become fact, I will gladly team up with Greg to form a series that will benefit both fans and racers. I'm asking to let it all play out first guys! As I said this morning, Greg was at his desk when I spoke to him!!!!!!

"raise some brow's" is a understatement! USAC in the coming year will cut it's races to 1/3 it's current schedule and most if not all will be on pavement. Just wait and see!!!!

This chance came along after Jason Smith decided he could do better by starting his own series, yes in a round about way, Gregg replaced Jason.

Now Jason Smith returned and brought his tag along Jason Mccord, the other co-founder that thought they could compete with USAC with their own Silver Crown Series, now we have a couple extra monkeys in the barrel.

Between Kevin Miller, whos involement with USAC prior to coming to work for them includes reading about them in a office memo from his previous job, Jason Smith, who tried so hard to shove it up USACs back door with his own series a few years back, and Jason McCord, who used to drive but has basically become a tag along, Which one of these three guys really cares what happens to USAC? To them, USAC is a paycheck and believe it, those three will cut every corner they can just to squeeze every dime out of USAC to line their own pocket.

Trust me when I say that there is NO ONE who cares more about USAC and sprint car racing than Gregg Stabb. He holds the best interest of our sport we all love very close to his heart. He has proved this with his 43 years of involment with USAC. Kevin, Jason and Jason, the Three Amigos, combined don't have half the time involved with the series as Gregg does.

I know to alot of you this is BS and maybe I'm out of line for saying it, but I just can not figure out why someone with Greggs experience and knowledge of USAC and Sprint Car racing in general would be released, if it's true.
I've re-read this first post from TrackSideIndy probably 3 times to convince myself (that iam correct) when I say that , " I can't disagree with a single word ! ".

New poster TrackSideIndy has posted 3 or so other comments between this thread and the one on the so-called "USAC firings" and I would believe ( from the total sum of opinion given ) that this guy presents an accurate assessment from a seemingly close view.
