    WRA Sanctioned 'Open' Vintage Celebration Sep 29, 2012 Willow Springs Paved Oval

    WRA Sanctioned 'Open' Vintage Celebration - Sep 29th, 2012 Play Day, All Day Willow Springs Paved Oval


    President Bob Mastroleo and the WRA Board have arranged for exclusive use of the Willow Springs Paved Oval from dawn to dusk on Saturday the 29th of Sep., 2012.

    This event will be open to all vintage open wheel cars, caged and uncaged with the exception of there being no down tube cars.
    Also, cars will be grouped according to speed and configuration and each group will have seperate track times throughout the day.

    All laps will be non-competitive laps, we are planning this to be a 'Celebration of Vintage Cars' and not a contest.

    I'm particularly pleased with the prospect of older and slower cars such as my 1927 Miller Indycar Replica, Bill Barringer's 1938 Indycar and other slower, non roll bared racecars being able to run together in our own group. Many of these older cars have been sitting since the speed differential is so great in current vintage events.

    Really look forward to another opportunity to celebrate our open wheel heritage.

    See the flyer below for details.
    All questions should be directed to WRA President Bob Mastroleo 626 358 2284 bmastroleo@altrionet.com

    Basically a way of seperating newer design from old on the track-vintage is frequently defined by pre-cage chassis.

    Bolt on cages gradually evolved into cages that were integral parts of the frame design.
