The Vintage Racing League is the leading online community for people who love racing and cars. Its free to join.
Members connect with people that share a love of specific marques or types of cars (e.g. Vintage, Historic, Classic, Antique,Formula Ford, Can-Am, Trans-Am, GT and/or Historic Formula One cars).
The VRL helps members find difficult to locate parts, restoration resources, race events and car clubs in your area.
You can exchange pictures and race videos and find "same car soulmates".
I look forward to seeing some of your vintage race video's.
FYI - I'm the co-founder of The Vintage Racing League.
I owned and raced a 1975 Crossle Formula Ford. I currently own and race a 1980 March Formula Atlantic and intend to rebuild and race a 1977 Shadow DN8 F1 car.
I race with CVAR in the Southwest.
I live in Dallas.
VRL Factoids:
An estimated 4 million people in the USA own Vintage, Historic, Classic and Antique cars (10 million world-wide).
The USA is home to 79 million Baby Boomers. Every day, 50,000 retire.
There are 27 Vintage Race Clubs in the US that stage an estimated 170 events per year.
Today, approximately 30,000 members in the 27 Clubs race Vintage cars.
We want to get more people into Vintage racing and a primary purpose of this site is dedicated to that goal.
Even if people do not race, they are welcome to attend events and learn more about the compelling nature of motorsports and it's history..
About: WWW.THEVRL.COM
We created a place where owners and lovers of vintage, historic, classic and antique cars could find each other, exchange pictures, videos and information about how to fix, restore, and race cars.

Hi Stephen unfortunatly I do not have race car although I would love one. I live in Northern Ontario Canada, My wife gave me racing lessons last summer so we went to Pocano International Racway. It was a bit of a drive there but well worth the expirence
That's very kind of you indeed. I am just getting my feet wet here and would like to look around. We would be elated to have a group for F1B. Perhaps you could email me a few details about your site like traffic figures etc. so we could understand more about the site and what kind of user lives here. I would hate to be a bore to anyone. ;) You can reach me at todd@formula1blog.com
Thanks for the kind words regarding the GT RACER Story on my page. I wrote this a long time ago and in retrospect am kind of surprised myself to see how accurately we where able to translate the story into the actual show. Let me know what you think once you've see it.
Stepen, Thanks for inviting me to join. I'm glad you are enjoying my web site and I'm curious, how did you find my site? I'm in the process of improving the Marque section so you can more easily find specific cars. I've built a database of cars and chassis numbers linked to their photos so you'll be able to go to a marque page and if you know the car find it by the chassis no and then look at the pics. Anyway keep spreading the word.
Hi Stephen, Thanks for the invite! I found this site through my dad, He told it was very good...He was right. I'll try to update my site with some pics and vieos soon!
Thank you for inviting me to join MyVRL. I think that ClassicCarRegistry.com and MyVRL could work together and it would be a very good fit! Unfortunately, my site is no where near the caliber of yours. I have been meaning to update it though. If you think there is a way we can work together let me know.

I congratulate you on your most excellent site and i have spent the last couple of days looking at it. It is unique and will ring together like minded car fans fanatics etc all over the world. I will certainly promote it amongst all my racing friends in the UK and Ireland.
I do have one comment which springs to mind over here in Europe and that is that Vintage means cars built 1918 and 1930.
* ANTIQUE Pre 1905
* VETERAN 1905 – 1918
* VINTAGE 1918 – 1930
* POST VINTAGE 1931 – 1945
* CLASSIC 1946 –1984 in year 2009 (at least 25 years ols in accordance with F.I.V.A. Article 1.2 of its Technical Code)
Do you have the same classification in the USA?
I do hope we meet at some stage and again I congratulate you on your hard work and achievement with The Vintage Racing League.
Hi Stephen
Thank you for your invite to be able to put my car an fully designed and built Holden from Australia. I noticed that it looks like that I am the only Australian car on your site
If you would like to have more of these types of cars on your site and want to know more about them go to our web site www.fefcholden.org.au there you will see plenty of these and all the info on them.
THANK YOU

Hi Steven,
Thank you for your invitation to join! I look forward to getting more involved with vintage racing. Looks like their's something for everybody.
By the way, how does one define "vintage" these days. Is there an understood date or age that a car must be to qualify as "vintage"?
Hi Stephen - thanks again for the invite & welcoming comments. I have a friend who owns a Ford RS200 - I bet he would be interested in MyVRL.com - I'll send him a link!
Stephan, Thank you for your warm welcome and I apologise for my tardiness in replying, but we have been travelling also. Since we spend very little time in Dallas, in total perhaps 60 -90 days a year, our future golf date may not be practical until next Spring. Incidentally, our son Billy Esping is a member of Dallas National and I have always enjoyed that course. When we return to Big D I would be happy to host a reciprocate match at Preston Trail.
Rodney
thank u stephen for your i hope to be bench racin soon im not on the pc to much work alot of hours but hope to chat soon again thank you for your greeting
Hi Stephen, I'm just curious where you got my email address which you sent an invitation to. Was it the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix website? What affiliation do you have to the PVGP?
Hi Stephen, i was just making a start to discover the website and will do some home work this weekend by adding a nice selection of my photo's to the my album.
Hi Stephen,
I was VERY interested to hear that you own an early Interceptor! Could you please tell me the chassis number and maybe send me a picture or two. I am currently compiling photographic records of these cars. Also, if you are interested, I am having a run of "quarter light" rubber specially made for the early Interceptor and trying to find enough owners who are interested to bring the price down. Would you be interested?
Regards,
Derek
