[Mg-t] FW: Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix

[John Deikis]

I ran this event for the first time two weeks ago in my "Works Midget." You
really don't get a sense from the video that there are NO flat or straight
stretches. Everything is either uphill or down, the street is crowned, the
storm sewers are 1920's vintage cast iron grate culverts with haybales stuffed
in them. And behind those walls are really deep ravines. This was on my bucket
list and I can't say there's anything in the U.S quite like it.
