Thank you. I recall in the pre-Offy era, midgets were 'poor boy' racers on all continents, with engines ranging from flathead Ford 4s, Fiats, Willys, etc. Now it seems you go for the hot thing,

Thanks, Dean. For whatever year that clip came from, it was enjoyable. I had not realized how similar NZ midget racing was to ours. For a moment, I thought I was watching a USAC program at Ventura.

Not sure I am up to date, but a lot of NZ “midget” racers have used Esslinger Ford based four cylinder engines, I think 2.3 liters. Esslinger is based in Chino, CA, but it is owned by a man from

Thank you Sure wish there was more racing and less survival testing. Sad to see all racing become cookie cutter cars. What engines do they use in NZ? Cheers, Bob Storck in KCMO

Yes, and ironically, electric fire apparatus are now being sold! I saw one last week at a fire department conference here in Indianapolis. Jack FinneyAvon, IN

Thank you, Jack. Sad that this might be considered political, but this points out how a once 'miracle technological solution' soon fell out of favor due to the risk. Note that incendiary lithium is a

A third explosion and fire occurred in the new South Street building on June 6, 1908. That one caused only minor damage to Prest-O-Lite but heavily damaged a fire station and hospital and broke

Yes, the FOS would probably be the main event.? Jim will have his Shadows there, this year.? I'll pass on your contact information. Thank you! Lee Stohr Port Angeles, WA

The Christie should be accepted. If you have problems re. the Christie, I can almost certainly sort it out for you. The Christie really should be in the Festival of Speed as number one priority. It is

Amazing cars!? If you are there, look up Jim Bartel, the Shadow CanAm team owner. If Goodwood was to approve the entry, Jim's 1909 Christie reproduction could be in that race by 2026. That would be
