Guys, I read this and I have to tell you, I am in the heart of USRA territory as a PR person, broadcaster, and announcer, and I hear the drivers and fans say the same things about USRA that apparently are being said about UMP up your way. I don't have the answers by any means. I don't know that one or the other is "the" answer. UMP is deeply rooted in the STL area, it would be hard to upset the apple cart so to speak, but then again that's what a lot of "experts" said when Todd got USRA rolling in Iowa and out here near KC, which we all well know Iowa was the heart and start of IMCA. From a media person's perspective, I truly hope something can be done because the participation from drivers and fans is definitely going in the wrong direction. Agenda and vindictive-driven processes will not work in the end, whatever changes are to be made need to have true meaning and justification.
