Yes! For a while I was kinda "angry" that pastrana choosed to start a new thing that its not popular in america (rallycross - with 2 recent dead championships) instead of just jumping in into the existing short course championships and making it a just one big series again (like pre-2009). Pro4 and Pro2 are easily the coolest things to watch once you know the drivers and all that happens during these championships! Plus theres already lots of gentleman/amateur racers, local tracks, fan base... Having Nitro combining the dying-west and the growing mid-west series in one national series would be amazing IMO. But hey, its not my money haha
