After reading many posts about the USAC Silver Crown meeting held earlier this week, I thought I might chime in to clear any misunderstandings.

1. The focus of the meeting was with the "new" car owners. As Jason and I were only 1 week on the job, please forgive us if you were overlooked as a car owner. We have a sense of urgency to address the hot issues, Silver Crown being one of many. Any car owner not attending may feel free to email me directly (kevin@usacracing.com) for a complete update.

2. The goal of the meeting was for us to get up to speed with owners on the direction of the new car. As I have followed many chat forums over the past few months, there are some very opinionated comments on the new car from owners and fans (yes, they are ugly), old pavement cars, and the dirt cars versus new cars.

3. The meeting was very productive in establishing a vision which will be solidified at a meeting date in mid January (tentative, January 18th). After agreement, this new vision will be announced prior to the first race in February.

I hope you will find myself and the team at USAC to be open and honest with our plan and vision for all series. We are hard at work reviewing direction for Silver Crown and Ford Focus series, 2 areas we feel need our immediate attention. The other key area that is being addressed with a sense of urgency is marketing. I think you will find a fresher, edgier USAC as we roll out our game face this year.

Stay Tuned.

Thank you for coming on IOW and posting, Kevin. That is exactly what we need here - more facts and less rumors.:thumb:

I think one of the facts we clearly all understand is they never should have messed with the SC cars to begin with... but I guess it it isn't broke.... break it... then look at the pieces:doh: I hope to see it back to what it once was.... I loved those big a$$ machines around Terre Haute and LOVE them at Eldora:crying:

I hope all went well with the meeting and it all pans out. Thanks for the info and welcome to the board!

Is it still possible to back out of any deal with NASCAR since they are obviously no help when they shorten events and put the races on when nobody is in attendance

Thank you Kevin Miller for taking the time to post on the message board here. I hope you and Jason can turn the club around and return it to the greatness is was in the 70's. I know it will be an uphill battle and I pledge myself and my family's help in getting there.
Best of Luck in 2008!
