初めて、USAが気になりだしたのは、私が15歳（1985）です。Bobby KaiserやDante Muse、Tony Muse
などの活躍がきっかけで、なぜこんなに速いんだろうという疑問から下記のUSAの雑誌を講読しました。
USA雑誌
いろいろな記事に目が釘付けになった思い出があります。
USAは、特にインドアで独特なレースをしております。
まず、コースですが、キャタピラ式のコース。これはコーナーワークの技術を磨くにはもっとこいのコースです。それにスタートもクラウチング方式なので、常に低い姿勢でのスタートになります。
下記に、直近のルールがあります。
カテゴリーや距離なども選手育成の志向が感じられます。
