    DirtCar attempting to buy IMCA?

    Heard a rumor that DirtCar was trying to buy IMCA from the Roots. Anyone else heard this?

    talked to Brett and this RUMOR is entirely FALSE. IMCA is going nowhere and wants ZIP to do with UMP.

            true and the last time it was discussed UMP wanted to buy IMCA..lol only for IMCA to turn the table and offer to buy UMP, and thus the meeting went no further.

              If IMCA needed cash to buy UMP,all they would have to do is ask the Smith family.They own AFCO,and Speedway motors and others. The Smiths have backed IMCA for many years.JMO

                indeed ! IMCA has plenty of cash, I suspect UMP was a little stunned when IMCA turned them table on them and countered with an offer to buy UMP lol

                  Would be better in my opinion if IMCA bought out UMP. Harder tires ,real techs,and enforceable engine rules.

                      I like the underdog... little ol' USRA/USMTS. Best purses for Mods, best racing on dirt and you don't have to run a foreign built crate motor. IMCA gets car count but fans don't go out of their way to watch them unless buds with or related to a driver.

                      There should be a front gate variable in all of this somewhere...

                          It would also help if you actually had a modified!
                          I absolutely know what I am talking about!

                            usra better than ump for sure but they have let some front end stuff get out of hand on the touring deal.

                              team Jarvis: can you elaborate any on this. Not disputing, just curious since I race USRA. I do know that Todd at our 3-day show in Las Cruces ,NM was saying in our drivers meeting that some of the shocks that were being used were to be outlawed the week after our show. He named off a few shocks and something called "pass thru shocks" which I don't even know what he is talking about. We also had USMTS there so maybe he was referring to that sanction. Thanks
