I equate this as the same argurment about the Winston Cup drivers running the Busch races. I don't believe that they should, and I don't think that "hired guns", specialist or whatever you want to call them should be brought in specifically for the purpose of running thes two races! I agree with Jeff Hammond on this issue. He stated it very correctly, "I have nothing against the road-racing specialist, or them entering these races. After all, their very good at what they do What I do have a problem with is them replacing the regular drivers in their regular rides. If they are entered in their own rides, I have no problem with it, but not replacing a series regular in his regular ride!" That is my feeling exactly!
