Historic Race Cars

[Tom M]

A couple years ago I posted some pictures from the vintage car races at Limerock Park. I went to the practice and qualifying session this year because the tickets are cheap and the crowd is thin, but the cars are still awesome. If you like old race cars feel free to check out my pics at

If you're in the area, go to the races on Monday or the car show on Sunday. You won't regret it. There are no grandstands and no pit passes required. You can sit on a grassy hill with your blanket or beach chair, a cooler full of lunch and a few beers, and watch the cool old cars go at it. Then go wander the paddock and drool on million dollar plus historic racecars.

 

Even though it's supposed to be gentleman's racing there's some pretty aggressive stuff going on out there. We saw more than a few accidents at the races a few years ago.

Does this Lotus make my ass look big? Now I know how Shaq feels when he stands next to a Miata.
