Uh I knew he was there because I talked to him after the race as I was there. I also know Stockton was suspended. If you would read my post carefully you maybe would realize I was blaming Hoosier for all the tire issues including the failed tests.

It's no fun trying to stir things up on here if we have to explain every post.

I imagine the reason RB has Don Ott engines and other top equipment is because he earned it

I thought this was interesting, the feature purse last night was $22,425. The USAC shows in MO next month the feature purse is $25,100. Not many support classes make what Extreme paid last night. I also thought Johnny Gibson was really good talking up the series before turning the mic over to Rob Klepper.
Open minded comment from a USAC loyalist!

It would be cool if Xtreme, USAC & WAR all cosponsored a race.... TRUE wingless Nationals!

Where's MSCS and BOSS USAC/CRA and any other 410 NW org? Would be great if some corporate sponsor could put up like 50k for a 15k to win 1500 to start race and the profits would go to track and orgs toward point funds

Knoxville tried a "TRUE wingless Nationals", but even they couldn't herd all the cats.

The show at Knoxville wasn’t really a nationals. It was only 2 days and the pay wasn’t all that great. They also featured winged sprints both nights and had them run hot laps and time trials before a non-wing car ever hit the track. The surface there also sucks for non-wing cars. Even if you could get all the cars together to run a true Nationals, there are not enough fans to support such an event.

Sad reality.
