Ok, I guess I'll be the bad guy and ask why NFS ditched the FSCA in favor of their own deal? The first of these four races got exactly 9 cars. The FSCA brought on average 16 cars. Doesn't look to me that the two can work together. So why would FSCA cars support this race? And people wonder why sprints are struggling in Florida...

[mocha2@dishmail.net]

I too would like to know why FSCA is not going to NFS this year.FSCA could use more florida dates which NFS provided last year so what has changed?

[sprint29]

Answer?

We would also like to know the real answer and how to resolve it? Gavin will not be there due to getting a deal to run the rest of the ASCS rebel region and two races with the coastal region next weekend!

Its just not in the budget to payout $5000 or $6000 dollars each time the FSCA roles thru the gate this year, we are doing this to give any sprint racer a place to race, not just the FSCA guys, and what we are paying comes out to half the cost,if we get only 10 or so cars well at least they had a place to run.

Why Be So Negative?

As much as Richard is blunt, he does make a good point.
If they stick it out, they just might be able to build this into a regular/semi-regular thing. You don't need a touring series everytime you want to do something different. Atleast they are trying.FSCA is a good bunch of people who promote Sprint Car racing. Instead of trying to make it sound like they are against the FSCA, why don't you treat it like they are wanting to be a feeder system for them. Maybe the next sprint car driver that comes from NFS, just might become their champion. You never know unless you try! JMO

Thank You for answering the question.

[HaudFan]

Richard, I also want to thank you for answering the question. I've been to NFS a few times when the FSCA has been there. The FSCA puts on a pretty good show at NFS but there doesn't seem to be much of a difference in attendance from a regular show and a sprint show...The idea wouldn't be so bad if the East Bay guys would make the tow to NFS to make it work!

[Richard Tipton]

Haud Fan we are talking with alot of drivers and we are working on it.
