You might be old school if you remember Earnest Tubb songs on the PA between races.

[QUOTE=ThePurple73;291043]You might be old school if you found it entertaining when a drivers wife would climb the flag stand ladder to discuss the race with the flagman.

Especially if that wife was Mahalia Kinser !

You might be old school if you have ever grooved a L/R drag tire.

Here's ya some old school midget pics. From V-Twin to Evinrude powered like mentioned earlier. I'm 30 so this was a ways before me but there's a few pics on page 7 of them racing in an arena Full of people and it is one of the neatest pictures I've ever seen.

Tim you are hard core and old school, times on the road in your shop and just hanging out shooting the S$%^ will always be apart of our lives. I am so proud that my sons, Paul and Josh had the chance to know you and to be a part of the "old school" that you and so many other people of your caliber provided people like me. Be safe my friend.

No doubt about it: you're definitely old school if you posted to this thread!

Your old school if you remember Tex Enrite standing in the middle of the track as a pack of thundering mods came his way, waving the green and just barely getting out of the way as they raced past. His cowboy hat never flew off, amazing.
Ever cut up a perfect 36 plymouth coupe body for your modified ? You have ? your old school.
Walk to school 5 miles up hill both ways ? old school.
You think tweeting is something birds do ? Yep you know what you are.

You know your old school if you remember Shorty's steak house in Pleasantville, Iowa after the races at Knoxville.

You know your old school when you are driving down the freeway in Los Angeles and see a huge ASCOT sign.

You know you are old school if you have a bunch of Carrera Shock Nationals shirts in various colors.

You know you are old school if you remember someone towing a sprint car on a wooden farm "hay" trailer pulled by a station wagon. Then using parts off the pull car on the race car.
