Keith that was really cool. Those model (for a lack of a better word) race cars are might impressive. Of course the bits about the midgets and then lakes racing were also fun to watch. Thanks

Thank you for posting this, I had read about tether cars when I was a kid, but they were attached to a pole, always cool to learn something about motor sports history.

I remember my dad bought my brother I and Cox Chapparals (sp) with .049 engines in them. You could run them in a straight line using string or fishing line, or you could make them go in a circle. My dad was building a hotel at the time and we ran them down the long hallways. Of course, I wish I had them now.....
