I thought this was going to be about Farm-truck, Azn and that lawnmower race.

Sorry to disappoint you, it is like a 7 step intro to vintage racing. Follow the steps and the VRRA will comp their race school.

There is no cheap racing but it is a deal if you are looking to start or return.

30 years ago I had an 11 second VW I street raced. Watching Azn eat the super cars brought back memories. Laughing

Now, enough high jacking this poor guys thread.

There are no rules. 30+ years ago I had a Datsun 510. It was fun but not very fast. Flared fenders for the big ass Goodridge on Mini Lites, 5 spd, dual webers on a SSS head and a ton done to make it turn. The 1.6L never had enough HP.

Sold it and bought a Vega with a 327, it handled like a brick but made up for that at the lights.
