I too know many top racers, Cragg, Martin, Stafford, Bradby, Moss, Williams, and a few yanks I met in Japan 2 years ago, these guys race cause they want too, not cause they will get paid for where they go. fair enough, they may not want to go win the local series, but they should want to win the worlds, wether or not they make loads of money!!!!

I completely, 100 percent, agree. Thats why our hobby is no longer graced by one of the greatest racers of all time, Matt Francis. That guy was so gracious for everything and so helpful (he set up my XXX for me at So Cal in 2000 and still from what I remember is the best handling car I have ever driven). It is a shame that those attitudes drove him out of the hobby (among other things).
