Hi,
I happened upon the "Vintage Sprint Car" thread, where I saw a picture of my grandfather racing/wrecking on the wall at the old Oakland Speedway. There were no notations, so I thought I'd jump on board and put in my one cent. :)
I realize I probably don't quite fit in 'cause I'm 1)of the female persuasion 2)blonde and 3)clueless when it comes to automobiles in general. I can, however, check and fill my own oil. And I have taken a long trip in my 1970 Dodge D200 Camper Special after I inherited it from my father who passed away. (It was really fun trying to find how to switch to the extra tank on an L.A. freeway.) I digress.
Perhaps I can be "grandfathered" in since my grandfather was one of the pioneers of racing.
