How does this change the sprint car world, or does it? Is some sort of cooperation between the HL and Narc possible, realistic?

My guess would take over west coast 410 racing and keep the outlaws out. Keep HL mostly western half of the country. just my thought

Does this mean no more frisbees, bang sticks and what ever bs they hand out. No more nights setting through a program that could have ending 1-2 hours earlier. 

Know your audience, most of your fans are 50+ and came to watch racing!

NARC has the best drivers on the west coast and have some of the most competitive racing you can watch.

I look forward to whats next for NARC and a big thank you to everyones hard work in keeping it going all these years!

Four of the last five NARC races have drawn fewer than 20 cars. That includes only 17 cars for $10K-to-win at Calistoga. I think the first thing Sweet and Rudeen need to address is participation.

That might be the ideal scenario, then Kyle, Kasey, Rico & Brad can have ther little Cali-Amigo playpen and leave the national touring to the WoO.

The smaller car counts for NARC shows over the last few years can be blamed on the lack of 410 racing on the local weekly tracks. Winged 410s have all but disappeared out here except for NARC as they have moved back to the 360 stuff.  A perceived cost difference in engine costs is largely to blame but one of the top sprint engine builders in this region says there is very little difference from 360 to 410.  Maintainence costs may be higher but I can't say for sure. There's surely enough classes for the smaller engines with 305, limiteds, specs, crates etc. etc,  Personally I'm a little leery of Sweet taking NARC over.

this is exactly what i was saying, divided nation, 410 action!!  racing is racing isn't it, coast to coast is NOT "ther little Cali-Amigo playpen and leave the national touring to the WOO"  Really, Cali Amigo???

How would they keep the outlaws out of California? Wouldn't the same tracks that book WoO races now, still do so in the future?

This is fine. If I were  the WOO I would dump the west coast anyway.
