Maybe we won't see these guys in VTA because they would get called names like "Sandbagger" or "Cherry Picker".

I think I am glad that I have never seen a Lemieux, Grosskamp, Hara or Cyrul running in VTA, but I just had to toss that in here to see what everyones thoughts were on the possibilities. Is VTA just too slow for those guys? Is it that simple?
The reason is these guys are paid to go to these races and the classes that get the most attention are the mod classes. Its not that the cars are to slow its that the class is not significant. This is just my oppinion
