I have to agree with Ovalmeister. I started playing with midgets as part of a crew that maintained two of them in the late 60s. In '72 (IIRC), one of the owners decided he wanted to own a real top-notch car. He bought a new Edmunds and installed a SESCO (we drove out to Ron Hoettles' shop to learn how to put it together). That car cost him within a couple of hundred bucks of what I paid for a new Ford Country Squire the same year. We ran the car for the whole NEMA season (30-35 shows) on less than $500. If that were even close to possible today, I believe there would be many more cars running.
