Here's wishful thinking for you. How about let the All Stars run themselves and go back to racing with USAC. That's what gave him the ladder to stardom anyway

We're down here in Deland right now getting ready to start watching the races at Volusia in a few days. I'll ask Tony what his plans are. I'll give him the IOW.com secret signal/handshake to let him know we are on the up and up.
To be continued.... |

This is what I think too. Father time catches everyone, add in some injuries, scaring accidents and less than top physical condition and it'll take some time to get back in the groove. Hustling a sprint on dirt is light years from reclining in a wallowing cup car. I'm sure he can still get it done, but it'll take some time to re-hone his dirt skills.

I know what you are saying about they have done it without him for many race nights. My point is Tony's rig was within 15 feet of the All Star trailer and we all react differently and with deference when the boss is nearby. I saw many All Star clad four wheelers pull up to Tony's rig for "conversation" from late afternoon until racing commenced. I just think dual roles can be a distraction to the focus and fun Tony is looking to enjoy.

MUCH smaller scale, but I told myself I would not run in any WAR races while I owned/operated the series.

Really wish Donny would talk him into Dirt LM racing...sure seems like the best fit to me...IMHO (only dreamed about being Tony Stewart since I heard he was running both "National" AND Western states USAC midgets in 1994! lol)
