History
In 2001 a man by the name of Jim Cox decided to start a
Vintage Racing Club in the Kansas City area.
He already had a couple cars built and ready to race. He decided to recruit some members to bring
back some nostalgic racing. Jim and a
few friends, Leo Hoefer, Dave Sneger and Mickey Fleehart built some cars from a
simple set of rules. Jim got a few
tracks to let us run and bring back some racing memories of days gone by.
It got to be very competitive and brought out some well
known drivers. Of course when you bring
back some of the Vintage drivers, you bring back some Vintage rivalries and can
get real interesting.
The purpose of this club is to bring back some Nostalgia to
racing and cars that are identifiable and to show people what their dads and
grandfathers used to race. It also gives
some seasoned drivers a chance to get behind the wheel again.
I guess you could call it the last Hurrah Club.
