Yes SVRA is all about the big money boys. However, The Mid-Ohio Kastner cup was a total train wreck for all parties involved due to the Covid lockdown. Things literally were changing on a daily basis. I will say that Tony Perella (sp?) worked directly with
me before, during and immediately after the event to try and make it work for us. The track management itself I felt was a real PIA however.</div>
