That comment comes from a guy who has a '52 A90??????? Crosleys spawned a
whole class of racing in the fifties and although dopey little cars, they
could whop on other dopey little cars that were plentiful in the day. Check
out the Al Moss videos and see Henry Manney driving his supercharged hot shot.
If you need a challenge, try to build a period special with a 750 cc engine to
beat a Crosley powered special, aint easy..........Cheers Henry Morrison,
Albuquerque, NM
