I don't know how vintage you want but I raced dirt track for 13 years, 1984-1996. Started in Enduro class went on to NASCAR Charger then NASCAR Street Stock. Raced at Watsonville, Antioch and San Jose, CA.

Here's my first one a 1966 Pontiac Tempest I raced in Enduro Class. 100-200 lap races, no yellow flags, red only on modified dirt oval.

Ron & DMW, looks like you guys were having a lot of fun a few years ago.

I enjoy the pics of all the old race cars.

[S Hmm, that Chevelle was 15 years old at the time..........built from a nice 6 cyl. Powerglide car.........just doing his part to prevent the proliferation of " SS 396 Clones" :eek::D
 
Here is some small scale vintage dirt oval cars from our local r/c track

I dont think a helmet is going to help Whitey. All the pics are great to see but it makes me wonder how many cars that we would love to have today were destroyed years ago.

I agree..probably a little late for Whitey,and yes we would have a LOT more today but they were having fun so who are we to... Given a few of us something to work on besides Fords..been fun.
