And again I harken back to the good old silver can. We run spec gears in our spec series and a spec tire. By slowing the cars down our newer drivers don't break so many parts. The top drivers don't want to go that slow so they don't run the class. New drivers learn and have a solid chance of doing well on race night. When the vetran pro drivers complain about having a silver can only night I tell them "this isn't about you, it's about bringing in new drivers." I then ask them to hang out and help the new guys so they'll stick with it. Guess what, it's working.
