    That's racing! Real stock cars racing on dirt! I wonder how many of the cars in the infield, racers and street cars, are still around.

    Hi-bucks race car! Had whitewall slicks... or baldies! Neat car just the same. I won't ever post a picture of my 1st racecar. It was such a POS. The only good thing about it was the engine, a 327. But it only lasted a day driving on the street in a CJ5. Something about 5.38 gearing, and driven at 55-60 mph and the oil doesn't get back to the pan quickly enough... not like on a dirt track, waaa, stop turn the corner, waaa, repeat
