They need a different class. Good. Now let’s watch as they add nitromethane to lithium!

As much as a fan that I’m not, of EV, it may be the thing that helps to keep the tracks open and the sport alive?

I see Teslas at the track all the time.

People have been racing golf carts at Cecil County on Friday nights for years.

Seems those hillbillies were ahead of the curve.

Hmmm...didn't know that I was a hillbilly.

The sad thing is I lived not far from there and never went or had a car to race. 😢😢

That's the track we went to the most.

I had a few friends that lived right down the street from there and I was always jealous that they could just drive their cars there and not have to trailer them. The Sheriff's never seemed to bother them for doing it back then.

Many nights I could hear the cars from my back deck.

We have hills In Michigan? It’s hard to even find a good place to go sledding.

Lots of rednecks, though.

I have heard a rumor that when Martin opened 2 of the farmers in town went in and raced their tractors before the first official race event.

You wish.

That term's not about Michigan.

Do you even have anything over a steep driveway there?

 

[vortecd]

There are speed bumps all over. Michigan isn't as flat as you think. I heard the term come out of the southern part of Michigan with the rolling irish hills

 

[vortecd]

never made sense to me though

We like to fool people, though.
Mount Pleasant, Mount Clemens, Boyne Mountain, Mount Hope, ... but no mountains.

 

[Boris]

People will race anything.

Not opposed to this at all even though its not my cup of tea.
People race Semi trucks and lawn tractors. More power to them.

 

[Speedy!]

EVs should have their own class, events, etc that way people that are interested in them can go watch and participate without the rest of us having to deal with them at our events.
