Is Robert Duvall gonna be your crew chief?
Actually, I bet that will be a ton of fun! I'm pretty jealous!

That looks like fun, though I like the Richard Petty STP car behind you even better! My dad grew up in Petty's hometown and knew the family well, I remember many Sundays cheering for him on TV as a kid.

In the pic the looks like Ernie Ervin and who? I know it's not Minkoff.
I drove a school car. They are different. |

Does it take many changes to get them to handle on a road course?
Are historics races run on ovals as well? (I'm in Australia so Nascar is a bit of a mystery to me)

No ovals, all road courses. This car is a pure road course as are many. Some change short track and super speedway cars to road racers.

I saw some those mixing it up with sports race cars at the Mitty a while back and was blown away by how well they did, even thru the twisties. You are going to have a blast!
Heard at the time that there are so many out there that they can be had for $ 20/25K That really makes them interesting. Have fun Richard |
