The concept of creating a fun and affordable "spec" class of racing for anyone to participate in here. These 5/8-scale fiberglass full-fendered versions of the famed NASCAR modifieds. Legends Cars have become one of the fastest growing segments of motorsports today. With drivers being classified into four 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. Then there is the Young Lions Division which is designated for the drivers between the ages of 12 and 16. Since the car stays the same from division to division, it is the driver that makes the difference! Legend cars use a 125hp Yamaha engine and weigh 1300lbs.
