Re: Watkins Glen
George,
Nice meeting you. Dick, unfortunately, broke an axle. He was lucky something worse didn't happen. I will definitely be racing a 1500 roadster next year. I may try to bring a second Datsun race car as well. With Datsun being the featured marque in 2011 it will be a year to be there.

Re: Watkins Glen
The photo above is Jim K from Pittsburgh. He took "Best 2000" his first time out since restoring the car. The pictures don't do justice to the car.

Our house was a mile down a steep gravel road, I can't imagine the amount of cringing Jim did in and out of the driveway.

Re: Watkins Glen
You missed the first house, road was WAY worse. The photo didn't do the scene justice, morning mist, Roadsters, dust, avoiding huge ruts, 3 inches of ground clearance, these are the reasons we do thisnats226ny wrote:I think that was me in front of you there Dave......eat my dust.

Re: Watkins Glen
Mark came DOWN that road in the 64 with 3 working brakes and a leaky front wheel cylinder in the 1500, so either he's braver or dumber than the rest of us.
Do we really have to answer that one Dave:)

Re: Watkins Glen
There was cold beer at the bottom. It was a necessary trip.
I remember when no one wanted the 1500s......
