So dad decided to get his vintage wheel to wheel liscense. He holds a PCA club racing liscense, but wants to play with the vintage club too.
The school was friday, saturday, and sunday. He passed with flying colors. He is not officially liscensed until he completes all of the events this season in good standing and gets signed off in october.... but at least he got the first 3 days under his belt. I'll have to post more pictures tomorrow but here is a sample of some of the other students: Attached thumbnail(s) |

Teeners gallore...
I think there were 6 teeners present this weekend. This car has participated multiple years past. Its owned by Greg Johnson, proprietor of one of the local shops. However he had a shoulder surgery and is going to be sitting out most of the season due to surgery. Rather than let a good car sit dormant, he is letting two of the nice guys at his shop use it: Attached thumbnail(s) |

There is a story about this car. It was the last vehicle raced by one of the local celebs that passed last year. His name was Danny Collins, and he was a fairly famous driver back into the fifties. He knew and was connected with very famous people and used to race agains some of the iconic names in america and europe. He used to run ferrarri's and such back then, and proceeded to go in and out of many cars over the last 20 years. He even was the designer of the colorado track we just lost (2nd creek)
He passed last year and this was the car he had. His widow sold it. He was in the middle of a freshening and the motor was apparently in pieces when he passed. The number I heard this weekend was AMAZING.... $3750 for the everything unassembled: Attached thumbnail(s) |

Don't you wish you had been in the right place at the right time for this one?

I like the Volvo, I always wanted to put a V8 in one and make a sleeper. I wonder if that Jag is fast enough to be worth all that ugly mods?
