>   I am Ralph Steinberg Race Chair for the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix. 
> For those of you who have been off planet for awhile the PVGP is a vintage 
> race held on the streets of Schenley Park Pittsburgh, Pa. We close the park 
> down Friday night and for two glorious days we race through the park. A few 
> hundred thousand cheering people come out to watch us and see the giant car 
> shows going on at the same time.
> We can now claim to be the longest continuos street race in the world. This 
> is our 22nd year of vintage racing in the park! We race to have safe fun, 
> put a show on for the crowd and to help some really needy people. We raise, 
> over 1.7 million so far, money for two great charities, the Pittsburgh 
> Autistic Society and the Allegheny School.
>   This year I have a new group running at the park, production cars built 
> after 1959 but prior to 1965 under 2.2 liter. There is a little leeway in 
> the years if a car was built in 1965 but is the same as the model built in 
> 1964.
> 
> We have added for this year a whole new race venue for the weekend prior to 
> PVGP. On the weekend of July 10-11 we will be racing at BeaveRun just 
> outside of Pittsburgh. We have classes for cars built prior to 1973 under 
> 2.5 liter and over 2.5 liter. This is again a charity event and is part of 
> the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix week long Festival Of Speed.

> For more detailed info you can go to www.cloverleaf-auto.com and click the
