Dirt track racing...

Now these are some COOL shots!  I'm a car guy so love stuff like this.  I must say, I have not seen old school cars like this being raced on a dirt track before.  That must have been great to watch.  


Have you been to a GoodGuys car show?  This shot I took 6 years ago at one, something tells me you may dig the car:

Cheers. Yeah I do like rods...

Actually I appreciate all forms of cars (well most anyway), American, Australian and a few performance Japanese cars too. I actually drive a modded '98 Subaru wagon running a 98 STI engine and big single turbo, STI brakes, lowered etc...But I also enjoyed my 1961 Plymouth Belvedere (not as fast as the Subaru though) and my '91 Nissan Safari (bloody good off road).

The photos are from a local yearly event called Torque 'n' Dirty , A local farmer has built a dirt oval (uses it to hold stock car racing events) and a complex with a wild west saloon bar and the like...really cool place...

Oh yeah, you and I will have plenty to talk about!  #2 shot of the Sin Bin is such a killer machine.  I bet that car turns some heads.
