I'm still trying to make sense of vintage classes. In what class does a 1951 VW with a 1600 run? Does it have the stock crankcase? 0.040" over-bore with what stroke? Sounds like I'm being more picky

You found a sanctioning body that will allow a VW Bug to race? I would think it has too narrow a track and too high a center of gravity to be allowed on the race track. I've never seen one road racin

Haven't you ever seen Herbie the Love Bug? That thing must have had jets boosters, the way it could catch and pass the field after stopping to mess around. Still worth watching to catch the *rest* of

In the '60s, there was a very serious VW racer at what was then Delta Park (now Portland International Raceway, in Oregon). Don't know much about it, but is was a real crowd pleaser and no less stabl
