Bill wrote it and obviously cant fix it. Unless you would like to learn programming and fix it yourself then I guess we will all have to live with it. The number of times you mention it on your posts will not make it magically happen. I suppose if you want to do us all a favor you could copy and paste it here from the USAC site The ASCS process is still working so thats why you still see theirs. Also Richie is way to busy to do it manually so you can probably forget about that too. Any questions?
I didn't start the topic (this time...lol). I think the quote you commented on explained my level of understanding of what has been explained (sorry, no better way to say that). What I've noticed in life, is squeaky wheels get the grease (can't say it has usually worked for me though). If we don't comment on it, it's like we don't care...

...I have copied and pasted many times; but I have wondered the following: Is there an on-going negotiation process if the job description should include participation on this site? If we do so, are we disturbing some of that process (either proving the worth of it or not)? It is like we are cheapening it some (if we do it; for "free") - Personally, I would like to keep USAC front and center on this site, but I do not want to step on anyone's toes when doing so. I was told they do not really miss us anyway, but I think we (not just me) continue to prove they are missed by many of us on IoW.

Bottom line: Richie puts out GREAT stuff packed with information. There are a number of followers on here that may not be on FB, tik tok, insta and what have you. Not all of us think to check USAC.com every day, but we come on here many times through the week. The more good stuff posted on here (or linked if that is what it needs to be) keeps traffic on this site and the information shared to a larger group of people. It is hard to believe it cannot be figured out; one way or another...

So that is that. It will either happen or it will not. The season is done, so we can move on (everyone can hopefully talk about the indoor races and if we feel like coming across a USAC story somewhere else, we will). If it comes back it comes back. If it doesn't; I guess it is what it is. The more time that passes maybe we will miss it less.

I have USAC on my bookmark toolbar right next to IOW. A single mouse click opens either one. I just don't see what the big deal is not having Richie's post on IOW. A mouse click is a mouse click. A real advantage to Richie's stories NOT being on IOW is avoiding a spoiler for a race you missed watching live on FLO, especially west coast races that run way past this old coyote's bed time. Just my two cents.
