just forgot foot pegs.  Don't you know that the most important thing abort a motorcycle is that you should resemble a shrimp ridning it. Without having to dress up in pink. |

Believe it or not, there is a turbocharged Robin track-day car being built in the UK...  I'm sure it will be the underdog favorite at the local track.  Nissan seemed to like the concept too. |

From "the Golden Age of the American Racing Car" by Griffith Borgeson: "You used to get hit with some terrific blocks and knots of wood. We all came in with pieces of wood bigger than kitchen matches driven into our face and foreheads. They'd go in, hit the bone, and then spread out. Then you had to remove them, of course." I can't remember who wrote about this, but when the tracks got really bad they would develop holes in the surface. Sometimes kids would crawl beneath the tracks and watch the races for free by sticking their heads up through the holes, believing they could duck out of the way in time if a car was heading their way (and of course, the drivers were trying their best to avoid the holes, too). This unnerved one driver so badly that he stopped racing on any of the board tracks. Here's a terrific Photobucket collection of images of board tracks and board track racing. http://s1011.beta.photobucket.com/user/carl44s/library/Board%20Tracks%20US%201910%20-%201931
