SILVER CROWN MEETING FOSTERS NEW DIRECTION
Wednesday, 19 December 2007
Principals involved in the United States Auto Club's K & N Silver Crown Championship Series met at USAC Headquarters in Speedway, Ind. Monday to discuss series strategy and implement ideas aimed at strengthening the series and creating a business plan designed to ensure its future success.
USAC President Kevin Miller and Senior VP of Race Operations Jason Smith presided over the meeting which included car owners, builders, team members and other interested parties.
I can assure you that there was at least ONE (1) long-standing owner and team who was NOT invited nor asked to participate in an important discussion about series strategy and to implement ideas. When did ONLY new gen car owners become "PRINCIPALS" and Secondcrown series owners become red-headed stepchildren whose opinions are not welcomed? It looks like the decision-making about strategies has already been done. Writing a letter to USAC now as they suggest at the bottom of the press release is a BIG SLAP IN THE FACE.

The discrimination involved in USAC right now is beyond belief.
Here is another long standing team and board member that was NOT invited. We are also builders, and our driver ranks in the top 3 in starts in the Silver Crown division. We have been invited to past board meetings this year but heard nothing about this. So far it seems like the same ole USAC just different players.:headbang:

Actually, they did not change the "management". They changed some of the puppets..... the puppet master is still in place.

Why don't you guys sign your posts with your real names and the names of the people that you refer to? Why are you so cryptic? This isn't the freakin CIA.

Jim, again shaming people into doing what YOU want them to do isn't going to do anything but drive people away. If they want to sign their name tey will otherwise forget it.

If people aren't happy with the way USAC is doing things just do like I do. I quit going to USAC shows except the Tony Bettenhausen 100 and the Rumble in Ft. Wayne. I can make as many as 5 pavement Selver Crown series races and 4 (if THAT host a dirt race again) Silver Crown series dirt races. I choose not to go to them nor Indiana Sprint week, nor the Knoxville Midget Nationals (thank you USAC for hijacking that event) nor the 4 crown's at Eldora. I was a member of USAC but got so tired of the BS that they pull I couldn't stay with it and be so critical of it. I have hopes USAC will get thigns turned around but won't believe them until I see them..

Someone posted that the changes in USAC still leave the puppet master in control. I agree but I think the ultimate pupe master is the fans. If we the fans don't support USAC events and voice our concerns to USAC maybe things will change, maybe they won't.

Jim Paternoster if it is so important to you to know my name then pm me and I'll tell you otherwise I will be simply known to you as dirtywhiteboy.

USAC did not release the names of the "PRINCIPALS" that were in attendance at the secret meeting to "discuss series strategies" now did they? If only New Gen owners were invited, and dirt car owners were not, then the discussion centered around series strategy would be slanted in favor of the new gen cars. This would make any decision-making done at the meeting completely biased. If only women are allowed to vote in the next presidential ********, perhaps the results would be skewed towards Hillary Clinton?

In a secretive society, people tend to become equally secretive. Let's sign me:

UNINVITED PARTICIPANT

*and long-standing USAC member who is expected to show up with a dirt car at Manzy in February and participate in what is probably the majority of the SC races this year but who isn't important enough to be invited to a meeting to discuss series strategy*

No, the CIA already reads our mail & knows who we are.
We're just not ready to let USAC in on the secret yet! :rolling:

How come you don't have anything good to say in your posts on message boards ?

I do have good things that I post on messege boards. Amazing people who see me at the races never have issues with what I post on messege boards. But to some I am an egotistical, self serving, incompetent, pushy a-hole. To the rest I am an A-HOLE

I can't believe people are defending RACEMS41's scheme of posting.

I think we have another speedtv.com forums being created here. Shame a few have to spoil it for every one.

Since I have seemingly offended someone, I'll just walk away from this board and let the inmate run the asylum.
