Next race...Redlines? Maybe Flying Colors?

I've been collecting some comic books from when I first started reading comics and from when I had my comic book store (late '80's, early '90's)...and, likewise, I've been looking to get some of the Hot Wheels cars that I had when I was little (mostly, stuff from the '70's). So, it might be fun to put a race together on this theme.

Tracton Event put a Redline Revival race together a couple years ago...and it was fun...though, I'll probably put an overall length limit on it to keep out the Jet Threats.

I don't think we've ever done a  'Flying Colors' race before...and those cars are in the 'sweet spot' of my childhood hot wheels mania...I had the poster with the Corvette on my wall! :) 

We could even do light and Heavy classes...there were some bruisers back then...Super Van, Spoiler Sport, etc.

Let me here some input, and I'll get a race together -thanks!

How about Hot Wheels 1968 to 78...the first decade duel!!!

How about the boxy slower cars from the 80s like the Citation and Omni?

I'm thinking of doing this the week between Christmas and New Years...I'll be taking that week off.

1978 and older cars sound good to me...I'll nail down the rules this week and get it posted.
