@@FlipperFord13My kind of human being! I live in a house with a now 8 year old boy, who, along with my 61 year old self who lost track of racing when “stock” cars became creations that matched what i used to carve out of wood in 70s science class as my theory as to what would go down a hill the fastest only to rediscover it in 2015 on nbc sports channel after having worked as a machinist 10 or more hrs. a day for decades….maaaan ive been catching up on EVERYTHING dirt late model since mostly with the 8 year old boy who will watch first, then ask all kinds of questions. I wish the anonymous donatour could meet him, mission accomplished even if its just one in my view. Anyhow…we have alot of questions, mostly driver related…in seperate comment
Those old Wedge Cars can give these new cars a run for their money, if not faster AND they used the air for traction (downforce), no suspension 4-link. I would like to see a modernized Wedge Car and it would probably be the fastest thing youve ever seen on dirt.
I agree, it would take some time to get a setup dialed in but I believe the wedge bodied late models could be faster than a 410 winged sprint car. The wedge cars were less than a 1/2 second off a lap from the wing sprints at the Springfield mile in '83.@@DaveVsEvilDead

Bucky was the best ! When his heart was in it, he had no equal. Rest In Peace Old Friend
I would love to bring this look back.
Ah yes! Real Late Models that don't have the stupid 4 link that makes the rear tire crawl up under the side.
These are awesome. Do you have any old ones of cleveland speedway?
Do you have any of 98 99
No I do not
do you sell these?
No , these were given to me to post on youtube by some one who had them made , he wanted to preserve some of the Dirt Racing History of H.E. Vineyard
