Greg, can I ask why headlights and cowl hood matter in an index race? I understand that it may be in the rules but why I wonder?

Seems like those "street appearing" rules came out of Cecil County's Street Car Shootout series. So, Atco, Maple Grove and Cecil (and maybe others) go by them.

Greg, those "street appearing" rules originally came from ETown's Friday night Top Street class which ultimately was moved to Sundays, a "noise day" due to the muffler db rule

Shoooowee, that is ugly, Brian. Eek


I'm going to settle for getting mine out of the trailer and driving it back in. IF I can manage that, I need to round up some 15" x 10", 6.5"-7" B.S. wheels and determine how I'll fit them.

Nice job the wrapper did there. I like that it's shiny. Shiny objects are good. Say, remind me, what's that white sh*t on the ground?
