No, you are REALLY old school if you remember the Minnesota State Fairgrounds Dirt Mile & 5/8 mile dirt track that shared the front stretch.

I remember all those things, and the fastest started in the rear to make a better race, except for sand bagging ,or qualifing with a plug wire off,or your car jumped out of gear because the gear box problem,or your ross or flynn steering was having a problem,and you had a tee shirt on as your race uniform

You might be "old school" if you remember:
-Dayton Speedway
-If you had 7 different colors of arm bands in your glove compartment
-Sprint Car Pictorial
-Calcuta (spelling?) at THAT
- "He's a full time racer" Terry Baltes on the PA at Eldora
-When USAC was respected and had a passion for their sport
-Sunday night at Angel Park
-Poker games at Salem
-My all time best friend Bob Fine
-When drivers and teams stayed after the races to spend time with the fans
-When race cars had names, example, Elder Cadalac, Rodeo Bar, Smith Speed Shop, Coyote, ect..
-Great Leaders Like: Gary Sacola, Mike Devin, Roger McClusky, John Capels, Russ Clendenon
-"THANK YOU FOR CALLING USAC"
-When you could trust a friend and your word defined you as a man

If you had a beer keg for a fuel cell and you were high tech, yep old school. If you can still remember Jan Opp's smiling face under his brothers hat and the hate most of the local drivers had for the "hippy", the coolest driver I've ever met, your OS.

I must be old school because I raced at Little Springfield, used a tractor tank for fuel tank on my first racecar, towed my racecar on my wrecker, Kyle Clearwaters

You might be old school if you used to complain about racing by writing a letter to Speed Sport News rather then posting on a message board.
