OT: A Car/Racing section?

Discussions for fans of all teams and all classes of South Carolina High School Football.

Does the board wish to have an out of the way section devoted to all things cars and motor racing?

Yes! I have been waiting for a special section devoted to cars and racing.

No! This board is just for prep sports. Use twitter and Facebook and texting for car talk.

I don't care as long as it does not disrupt high school and college discussions.

Had this 1972 Pontiac Trans Am 455 HO in the late 1980's. This is another on my list of "wish I still had this one" cars.

The car my dad helped my buy for my senior year at Northwestern. Purchased in Sep 1977. Turns out it is actually a rare paint color - Champaign. Never modified. Always stock. Sold it in early 1982 to pay for my honeymoon. Now....no longer have either her or the car. I miss that car!!!!1969 Camaro RS pic 1.jpg1969 Camaro RS pic 2.jpg
Nice! Those were the rave cruising the boulevard on Saturday nights. I've owned several different models during my lifetime, the 69' model has been my favorite. Currently own a 2011 SS, it has all the 69' retro designs.

The driver is Bruce Brantley. The guy standing beside the car is my Uncle Jack, who was the lead mechanic in their partnership. This picture was taken in 1965, shortly before Uncle Jack and 2 of the names on the front fender (1 was Bruce’s brother) were killed in a car wreck on I-85 just outside of Atlanta. Both Bruce and Uncle Jack are in Georgia’s Racing Hall of Fame. I have the original photo.

Is this another one of those Fast & Furious movies?

Am I the only one who thinks the poll results are BS?

Look at how old this thread is. 🏈 🚗 🤪

Com'on Nascar is only attempting to create renewed interest in it's failing market.
I'd rather they televise the garage area the rest of the season. :lol:

The son of racing legend Richard Petty has spoken.
