    I knew "1950's" "Midget" and "Dirty" would getcha looking at this! :cool:


    Pretty good for taking a video from a phone.. Too bad about the crummy music and the shaking in the first 20 seconds, but here you boys go..

    The music turned me off and I turned it off. I don't know why everyone thinks they need to add music to race car videos. Guess I could watch it again with the sound off to see the whole thing though.

    Expanded to full screen and with the sound turned off it's just like watching a move my dad took with his 8mm back in the 60's but the camera work is a lot better. Thanks for sharing.

    Cool vid. I would rather hear the race, but I'll have to admit I kinda liked the music.
    Couple of nice little Chevs sitting around the infield too.

    If you take away the last word, outside the automotive community this could mean some very different things.

    Dirty Oval Midget? I should have just written "Midgets... In Mud!"

    But I figured I'd put music in to cover up my stupid narration:
    "Oh COOL drifting DUDE!"
    "Should I set my midget up for the track or for the drags?"
    "Keep your hands and legs inside the midget at all times.."

    But yeah, music over race car videos IS stupid. But there's no sound to begin with and hey, at least it wasn't Techno!
