No matter what form of racing the fans want to see the biggest and baddest.410 sprints will outdraw 360 even though times are within a second.Winged 600 micros will turn times equal to midgets but the Chili bowl has the top drivers along with star power.It has always been that way.The word Outlaw is much more appealing than limited,

The more I read the more I think the WRG endgame is swallowing USAC.

Micros are pretty much a hobby, I don't think anybody does it for $$$
|
Its hardly seems like hobby anymore with races paying anywhere from 2K to 20K. Super teams with everything. Its hard to believe. There aren't many if any making a living at it but thats the way racing is. I have to believe a top notch micro must cost about 30 grand these days, even if its considered a hobby its an expensive one.

I wouldnt be surprised if you are correct. However, why have they not focused efforts on the late models to develop their series over and above the Lucas LMs?
Even though I may not know you, I
care what most of you think!

Its simple, dirt track racing has more entertainment value than the wretched pro stick and ball sports, the chinese propaganda "movies", or any crap you can find on TV. All the usual entertainment places have been ruined by the woke cretins that infest them... not a problem at the dirt track, aint nobody kneeling and if the wokesters act out, they will get thrown out in a heartbeat. Small to medium drag racing is seeing the same renewed interest for the same reasons.
