    So much fun.....the ATV thought i was nuts and asked if it was all wheel drive.

    The coupe drove through everything and never gets stuck. Just like the old model a videos in black and white of people driving over anything in there way

    Those videos ruled. I wish I could head northeast for this race.. Maybe one of these years, I will.

    Good luck with the show. Hope it becomes an annual thing!
     

  8. Sweet! Make sure you have the 1911 HD email me at theraceofgentlemen@yahoo.com so he can be registered to run.

    Anyone thinking about running should get in contact! There is a cut off, only a certain amount of cars and bikes can run the 1st year. Get on it people!!!

    If you want to run a later OHV, anything that is not a flathead... you need a hood. Only one rule, so deal with it please. We have guys fabricating compleate builds for the race, a race hood or sides should be easy enough.
     
  9. PM sent Dave.
     
  10. We have a few people constructing some cool cars aiming to have them done for the race. This excites me!

    Today we have a potential entry if it can be finished in time. A Model A, cloth covered zepplin with the same race numbers as the tail number from the Hindenburg. Very cool!!!

    I might try an bring my original piece of the Hindenburg to the race if I can sneak it out of the Museum we lent too.
     
  11. I'm a little busy these last few weeks. But we will be running two roadsters down the beach soon and we will film it for you guys. I'll report back about tires and traction, etc.
    Stay tuned... our beach season just closed, so we should be hitting it soon. I just have to finish up some work on both roadsters.

    I believe Mel said that all other non race, pre-war vehicles will line up along the street in front of the beach. I will be parked there in my post war 34! -E
     

  13. Hell YEAHHH!!! There is plenty of room for cars or bikes, etc, not involved in the race.

    We have tons of parking! There is a cool parking lot on top of the beach in Loch Arbor, where you can park and walk right down towards the finish line. Or you can park up on the street along the boardwalk in Allenhurst where the race starts.
    We also have a old school bus that will bring people back and fourth to the staring line, finish line, or parking areas.
     
  14. This is an old, school bus! Not an ol skool bus.
