[SportsandRec] Diecast Collecting and Racing

[Wade Hemmelrick]

Shark in the Dark Racing a k a Number 114 has scored a huge win with
that casting of a gray 1971 El Camino. Talk about "the last shall be
first." This Slowpoke Class entry is in the diecast showcase till
November. If this vehicle scores another final first place finish, it
will be a "Car of the Year." Biggest score ever for Shark in the Dark
Racing! Check out the Orange Track Racing fan page for live videos and
race results!
