bugfreek:
Im going to be building a mid 60's circuit racing bug and was woundering if anyone has been involved with vintage racing or had any photos of bugs racing back in the day.  Any imput would be helpful.
 
Thanks darren

Geoff:
Do you want a drag car or road course? If your looking to build a drag car (gasser) I know of some good links.

bugfreek:
Going to be road course.  There is a guy that races with sovren in the states.  He has a 65 that was raced from 65 to 70 then retired and he gave it new life. Going to try and get ahold of him as well but hoping for some local knowledge.  It has to be built to era correct scca specs or other governing body of the time.
