Mar. 31 – Chump Car World Series
“St. Guinness – Patron Saint of Perpetual Indulgence Challenge Pint” – 14-Hour Enduro
Return to the era when racing was fun and cheap…when Bondo beat carbon-fiber; when a crescent wrench was the most valuable tool in your box; when home-made engineering made everyone sit up and take notice; and when adding a little theme to your car didn’t get you laughed off of pit lane.
