IROC Preservation and Future Aspirations

the man's name was um orol I believe that was his name uh and orall he uh good Trans Am racer we've got several cars that he had but uh you know they lightened it up and uh that we we actually have another chassis front snout for it because they cut holes in in in the one that was in it to try and lighten the car because the iro cars were never really about being light but we do have all the parts original parts to put that one back together how do you get that indie car did you put it on a forklift and get that up there yeah they that Indie Car really doesn't weigh much at all you know I think it weighs about 660 lbs so it doesn't it doesn't weigh much you know so you know the um the other cars are all on hydraulic lifts but you know the light cars you know that but the little feret right there that car is all aluminum and titanium it weighs less than 900 lb and you put that up here with the forklift yeah what kind of like you have like a skit or something to pick that up or yeah or we just snatch them by the roll bar take the bodies off snatch them by the rollar and set them up there yeah this would be a precarious operation yeah but that's what we do you know what I mean what do you do that's what garage guys do if you find a way figure you know if you can't you know we if we waited till we had everything properly we'd never get anything done well we we've been able to come across things like the original signin sheets from a place like Riverside you know the iro signin sheet and you got guys like Peter revson signing in and Richard Petty you know all the and you're like and it's the signin sheet so you know there's just so much history attached to this you you just didn't see those drivers together that often and hopefully we can bring that back I mean how cool would it be to see Lewis Hamilton race Kyle
