There allow all kinds of vehicles, even included a 1965 Corvair, a 1956 Ford Victoria, a 1955 Chevy. Each vehicle is classed and sorted to equal vehicles.

I love the sound of a combustion engine hitting 9,800 rpm in the morning.

Tell us more about the car. Sadly, I'm most interested in what the fuel tank capacity is. You can be as fast as you want, but if you have to stop to refuel then you just wasted your speed

Tell us more about the car. Sadly, I'm most interested in what the fuel tank capacity is. You can be as fast as you want, but if you have to stop to refuel then you just wasted your speed Race is only 58 miles one way, then a break period in Sanderson. Then return to Fort Stockton, another 58 miles. Each car is assigned a class, the speed is set and the driver tries to see how close he can be to that designated time. Too much math for me.
