Tustin vintage races

[intocarss]

Found a box of pics I took from a race in the 90's at Tustin Airforce base

Here's a few, I will download and post more later













I loved the 2 huge blimp hangers They were amazing! You really had to stand at one end looking through to really appreciate just how BIG they were.. Yup these 2 are crooked like my brain

No, that was this car

It was a Chevelle he did that to. The Camaro he raced in the Tran Am series. Don't think they ever raced Camaros in NASCAR.. Except for Flash68

Tustin Thunder wasn't that what they called it.

A guy from Texas had a semi full of vintage Fords including a real GT40 in green and gold that he ran hard. I remember him coming into the pits with tire doughnuts.

I remember a really sweet first gen Firebird running pretty good out there also.

tell where they widen the rear quarters on the back of the dark blue 69. Look at the distance from the tail lights to the outside edge
