Had a great time this last weekend at the big vintage races at Road America in my 914. Here’s my In-car video from the group 8 feature race.

Ben you looked great out there, what a day to race the weather was perfect.
Now if Road America could only stop ruining the races by putting modern cars in with the vintage it would be nice. a 2004 Acura TSX is NOT a vintage race car and does NOT belong on the track with '60s & '70s GT cars...especially when he beats the field!

Thanks, Glenn. I’d say it had to be the best weather I’ve seen at this event in at least the last 10 years.

At this event in particular, as you’ve surely noticed over the years, there tends to be an increase in very contemporary cars joining the mix. On one hand, vintage needs to adapt if it’s to continue bringing new people in. I’d reckon the 25 year rule is acceptable in my eyes.
