We are planning to run Valve Cover Races at this year’s show. This is great fun folks, so drag out that old dusty valve cover you have siting in the garage, have a look at the rules listed below and maybe do a bit of Google investigation, then go to work and build your race car. This a simple project that can reap loads of fun for years to come. Hope we have a great turn out at the races!
