The Historic Stock Car Racing Series - Moving Ahead by Going Back in time in 2010

The Historic Stock Car Racing Series, www.hscrs.com, announces that it will continue to be the go-to organization where owners of authentic 1995 and older NASCAR and Winston Cup stock cars raced 'back in the day" can register and authenticate their 'rolling pieces of American racing history. Our members can then, if they choose to, compete in a respectful manner alongside similarly minded gentlemen and lady drivers.

HSCRS is dedicated to the… Continue

How to crash a vintage car and make people not notice

Have you even heard of the blame rule that says" no one is looking at you as long as you are pointing at someone else." ? Sometimes when a driver, and I use that term loosely, runs out of talent, he or she will not want to admit that lack of talent was involved. Lot's of things tend to pop up in the blame department. " I had the sun in my eyes, I have new tires, I have old tires, The mechanic reset the shocks, It was the other guy who did something, cut me off," etc. etc. feel in the blank. I… Continue

a new club for vintage racing with a twist

Funny how when I wrote the last series of blogs I heard from a number of racers that were in fact looking for a place to race their pre 1990 cars. As a result they are talking about getting together and taking a serious look at insurance, and cost of doing a racing club that falls somewhere between strict vintage and an SCCA type deal. The discussion has moved to a what if and where stage. I am just listening to what is happening. I was not aware that there were this many guys are out there in… Continue

how to kill a vintage racing club

I belong to a pretty successful vintage organization in Texas. I have done so since around 1995 give or take a year. For many of the early years it was a "run what ya brung group" it was lots of fun. In the past few years there has been a push to remove the "non vintage" cars like, reproduction Lotus 7's, 11's and other car of that nature. This is all good if the intent is to have really vintage club. The problem here is that the rules that are supposed to be followed are not.

The club… Continue

board member election for CVAR

It might be a good time for those in CVAR who may or may not be happy with how things are in the club, to elect someone for whatever position you are unhappy about. I am sure some new blood or old blood is due for some positions. Heck I might even run for a position on the board. Don't just rubber stamp the members. That would be kinda like voting the same old boys into the Kremlin. Just make sure of two things, first make sure the person you want will do it, second make sure that they can get… Continue

The best time ever to be a muscle car guy….or gal!

I have the chance to interact with a lot of fans of American Muscle cars on a regular basis. I realize that here on VRL people are passionate about old fast cars of all types, but muscle cars are still quite prevalent. I also speak with a lot of people in the automotive and restoration industry as well as those that sell classic cars for a living. Everyone seems to whole heartedly agree – there has NEVER been a better time to be a muscle car guy…or gal!…
