Gordon,
It really hasn't changed that much. Every year I head over to the
Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix in July. Most of the races are Pre-1960 cars
with a couple of Pre-WWII classes also. The 'race track' is a couple of
city streets used to tie together some wonderful winding hilly park lanes.
Every tree (and parking meter!) is protected from damage by hay bales. I
don't imagine they would protect a car very well though? It is a great
sight to watch MG TC's and Allards working through corners at speed; some
times with all four wheels pointing in different directions!
