Jack...
Your videos reminded me of how Corvairs, Volkswagens, Plymouth Valiants,
and Volvo 444/544's were all part and parcel of the sports car crowd
back in the Golden Age. They even had clubs of their own and staged
events (I still have dash plaques from them). I do not, however, recall
any of them racing in SCCA races.

Both early 1960s taken in Hawaii when I was very young.
The white Bugeye is mine of course.

The one with the timeing stand was taken at the lower runway at
Wheeler AFB
where the only planes got off against the Japs during Pearl Harbor.
The other
is in the PACAF HQ parking lot at Hickam AFB.
Both events sponcered by the Armed Forces Forign Car Club who did
events each
month.
Old and poorly but enjoy.
