I agree with Cosworth18. We took two of our old midgets to the MVVR events in Oskaloosa and Knoxville Iowa [6/24-6/25/10] and had a great time. The only down side was the wire wheeled Ranger powered sprinter getting on its head.

Another "trend" was "vintage" cars that really weren't vintage. I have nothing against guys building replicas of long gone stuff but building a brand new 1980s midget/sprint so you can go fast doesn't seem right.

If you are going to start a vintage club you need to go to a MVVR event and see the right way to do it. They are having a 3 day meet in Oskaloosa in September. Friday is test & tune. Saturday & Sunday are regular events on the beautiful 1/2 mile at the Southern Iowa Fairgrounds.

We need more vintage events of all kinds.
