Photos from Toyota Speedway at Irwindale
We arrived at the speedway and were escorted into the paddock area where we were parked in a line (Sorry, I have no photos here. I am sure someone else will post some). Before the racing, the fans are invited to go out on the track to view the cars. The divisions that were racing were the Bandolero's (entry level car for ages 8-14. Cars powered by a 2 cyl B&S Vanguard engine (sealed) producing 30 HP):



Legends (5/8 scale cars patterned after 30's & 40's cars powered by a Yamaha 1250 cc engine):



Sport Trucks (all powered by a GM Crate engine), Super Stocks (commonly called the "Camaro Class), and last but not least, the "Skidplate" race cars. These cars are all front wheel drive, with the rear rims chained and welded to a steel plate. These are fun to watch!


A few photos of some great looking 123's and on the track:
