Cool Old SCTA Video
« on: January 31, 2006, 02:46:20 PM »
Hi Guys Newbie signing in. I've been lurking for a while, and thought I should finely sign in. My Father is Larry Monreal of Larry's Old Volks Home.  Dad's been coming out to El Mirage and the Salt since before I was born (I'm 50) I first raced at Bonneville myself when I was just 16, and been coming out just about every year since. Anyway I came across this really cool video that I thought you guys would really enjoy. Please forgive me if it's been posted before. I think its great! E :D enjoy!

Rodger, welcome aboard, it's a fun site and a lot of good info as well. Tell your old dad hello from the old timer guy.

Glen, Thanks for the welcome. I'll tell my dad you said hi. He's back home right now (San Bernardino) Re-building the Ghia engine getting ready for the Salt.
