My Dad used to race cars too, more like this though:

When I was born he moved on to announcing the races at the racetrack my Grandfather built. Later he would give tours to races up and down the west coast of NA (we were always along for the ride as my Dad drove the bus tours from racetrack to racetrack). My Grandfather carved the track out of a wilderness largely with his own two hands (operating a lot of mechanical devices). He'd been a gyppo logger previously, he was a proper hard ***. I watched him melt at the end of his life though (no one else would take care of him, he was too mean). I grew up up in this world from my birth. My three cousins took to it, they're all car crazy and earn their living from that world (complete rednecks). I stuck to bikes, although I can't really ride much these days as a consequence of old injuries due to racing (and crashing probably). My back is screwed.

PS, in answer to the question posed quite a while back about the race car being set up for a road track and how you could tell from the photo. It has to be the wheels, the canter or something but it must be the wheels. That's pretty elementary though.

pps, the world of car racing was where I learned just how corrupt Americans are. Even as a child their arrogance, duplicity and outright corruption was on full display. It didn't take a college degree to understand that they would do anything it took to cheat, I mean win. hahaha Some things don't change.
