Indiana Open Wheel - View Single Post - Nostalgia club without exhibition speed?!?!

I run vintage cars on big tracks at lap speeds of around 100 MPH. Some of the faster cars I run with are running around 120 MPH lap speeds. We have no problems.

The problems happen with these little short track clubs when "brave" wannabe racers show up with old cage sprint cars and midgets with cartoon size balloon tires and show no respect to the real vintage cars and drivers. Nothing makes me more nervous than being on a short track with some 20 year old kid in a cage sprint car.

I agree with "Bad Dad"...... If you want to race, go race. If you want to run vintage cars get yourself a real vintage car(pre 1970, no roll cage, narrow tires).
If you want to go fast in a vintage car, come on out to the Phoenix Mile, California Speedway, Darlington Speedway and the Milwaukee Mile!

"Cars without cages must be strictly prohibited"
HA! HardyBoy, you must be joking. What a stupid statement.

Good Luck with your new club!
