I know this is is a little late but to the people that commented on the young drive I under stand just what you are saying. We used to run quarter midgets and there were lots of parents that spent all there money to win. But also remember there are parents that spend all there money so there little girl can race. And some how she figures out how to win. Maybe now that we are racing legends she can figure it out again because i for sure do not have the money to buy wins. All I am saying is not all the children are the same.
Thanks cody
My post was not directed as a jab at younger drivers, or wealthy ones, there are plenty of good kids and their parents and guys/ladies with big bucks out there racing having fun and keeping things in perspective. However, (in the south at least) I scratch my head at all these folks who show up to the races with the $150,000+ full size haulers, four cars, hired pitcrew etc.... all for what is supposed to be a fun, INEXpensive, form of racing. There is also a breed of folks down here determined to make their kid the next NASCAR star at any cost. I am pretty much a newb to Legends, but have heard from others about certain folks soaking tires, bypassing seals etc... all in an effort to rack up as many wins they can before jumping up to bigger things. It's these folks that USL seems to now cater to since they always want shiny new go fast parts, and will spend a premium on them.
Anyway, my frustration is not out of jealousy of these guys. Rather, it's that I spent a good chunk of money on what I thought was a budget friendly class that is now getting as expensive to run as a Limited Late Model.
