As much as a fan that I’m not, of EV, it may be the thing that helps to keep the tracks open and the sport alive?

People have been racing golf carts at Cecil County on Friday nights for years.

Seems those hillbillies were ahead of the curve. :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

That's the track we went to the most.

I had a few friends that lived right down the street from there and I was always jealous that they could just drive their cars there and not have to trailer them. The Sheriff's never seemed to bother them for doing it back then.

Many nights I could hear the cars from my back deck.

your not, term hillbilly came from Michigan so I guess that is what @jonx96 @jroyk and I are:LOL:
We have hills In Michigan? It’s hard to even find a good place to go sledding. [biggrin]

Lots of rednecks, though. (y)

You wish.

That term's not about Michigan.

Do you even have anything over a steep driveway there?

:p

There are speed bumps all over. Michigan isn't as flat as you think. I heard the term come out of the southern part of Michigan with the rolling irish hills

We like to fool people, though.

People will race anything.

Not opposed to this at all even though its not my cup of tea.
People race Semi trucks and lawn tractors. More power to them.

EVs should have their own class, events, etc that way people that are interested in them can go watch and participate without the rest of us having to deal with them at our events.
