I'm not sure what is happening right now. On road is down, but we're getting a lot of guys for RCGT, Trans Am and F1. Yesterday the local series had 3 mains for RCGT and 3 mains for trans am, and 2 heats of F1, besides 13.5 and sportsman (novice).

The thing about this stuff is that the tires are good until they're bald and worn through. The bodies look great, but there's not a lot of advantage of one over another. It's a little slower.

I think people want to race on road, they just don't want to dump cubic money into it.

Actually, if you want a shocker, look at dirt oval. I was just at a race that had over 200 entries for a 2 day event. They had 90+ MOD sprint cars
