And we must say a HUGE THANK YOU to all of the partners in the first year of the shootout series.
It was in April of 1992 that the first Legends Car was unveiled at the Charlotte Motor Speedway. The concept of creating a fun and affordable "spec" class of racing for anyone to participate in was born. Legend Cars are 5/8-scale fiberglass full-fendered versions of the famed NASCAR modifieds driven in the 1950's.
Since that time, the Legends Cars have become one of the fastest growing segments of motorsports today with over four thousand participants world wide.With drivers being classified into three different divisions, Legends Cars is THE racing opportunity that is available to anyone! The Pro Division is for the experienced drivers. The Masters Division features drivers 40 years and older. The Semi-Pro Division is the novice class, featuring the drivers that are new to the sport or have been inactive in other forms of racing for a while.
Legend cars arrived in the Uk in the late nineties when Incarace agreed to promote the oval series and Derek Hales invested well over One Hundred Thousand Pounds in the parts and brought in the new and used Cars in order to get the series started in the Uk and on a sound financial footing. Nearly twenty years later there is still a full parts backup at every legend meeting making it literally supermarket racing with prices to match. You can get yourself on the Track for as little as One Hundred Pounds for a test Day with Race Car Direct who can also offer a Hire Drive Package for individual meetings or a full Season. Pro - 24 workshop and Matt Roach Racing offer full chassie repairs and race set ups again all at reasonable prices. Both Companies also offer arrive and drive packages.
Spedeworth / Incarace Europe's largest oval promotion supports the series at all their venues around the Uk this includes Aldershot / Birmingham / Eastbourne / Hendnesford / Ipswich / Northampton / Wimbledon / Yarmouth. This provides the safest and most professional racing environment in the uk and a big thank you must go to all the marshals and track staff that support the series.
