Kind of got that vibe from them. They haven't updated anything as far as the website and such goes, nor said anything about 2009. IT sucks to see them struggling. CORR too.

Will probably go regional like ASA did. Sad to see, hopefully ARCA doesn't head that way also....

ARCA seems to be okay for now,but of course,if Speed keeps dicking around with TV coverage and no-one can see the races,it's not exactly going to succeed either.

Why don't they get Camping World to sponsor it. They sponsor everything else in the fucking sport, so why not?

They've got a major sponsor lined up for 2010 so hopefully they can scrap something together for 2009.

It's a great short track series, and it's produced a lot of good driving talent. I'm glad to hear it'll be back.

Considering they haven't even released a schedule yet, I'm not too confident they'll have a decent TV package if any at all this year.

One thing that's certain is that they won't be racing at Southern National Raceway Park, which hosted two Pro Cup races last year, since it's currently for sale and will not be hosting racing of any kind this year unless someone buys it soon.

Maybe MavTV will cover some of the races if nothing else, and the four people that get that channel will enjoy some USAR racing. :D
