As our friend Paul Crowe over at The Kneeslider (www.thekneeslider.com) pointed out last week, our friends at Metro Racing (the guys who make all those cool vintage T-shirts) are sponsoring an upcoming vintage dirt track race and are bringing in Jay Springsteen for a Vintage Dirt Track School in Harpursville, N.Y. on Thursday, June 26.
Here’s the press release from Metro Racing (www.metroracing.com):
Vintage Dirt Track School at Square Deal AHRMA National. Learn setup and sliding from two of the best in the business.
As if the Metro Racing/Square Deal AHRMA Vintage National Dirt Track double header weekend over June 26-28, 2008 in Harpursville, NY needed any more value added – it just became an absolute do-not-miss. Period.
On Thursday, June 26th, a small group of 15 riders will take part in the Jay Springsteen Vintage Dirt Track School. Springer rode vintage bikes when they were new and for one-day only the three-time Grand National Champ is ready to help you become a better rider. Springer will be joined by master tuner and long time dirt track guru, Woody Kyle. Woody will help the class with bike setup and give pointers to make your bike perform to its peak potential. At just $375. per rider, this is the opportunity of a lifetime – two of the greatest minds in dirt track at your disposal! Not to mention that you can apply what you learned over the next two days for the AHRMA Vintage Dirt Track National(s).
Rounding out the weekend is the Boots Oakley Vintage Show & Swap Meet which is sure to bring out the best in bikes and stuff. In fact, you can see the track from the swap area – so you can swap and watch! And a People’s Choice Bike Show awards in several categories.

Camping on premises, no hook-ups, showers in the club house.
