    I found this one online looking for something else but they look to be having fun, anyone you recognize here?

    Feel free to add more vintage shots.

    That’s an old one Andy, back when men were men, no roll bars!

    I'm thinking that's gotta be first year of Attex-ish? 1969?

    I know someone at the Nationals in July mentioned they ran the New Jersey beach race around then.

    Not sure of the time or place, but techfx is right- real early, before the seat belt/roll bar rules took effect. Those guys had some testicular fortitude racing narrow first gen Attex with no belts or bars. I don't want to know how many got injured those days. I've personally rolled over almost every model of Attex: some with roll bars and some without, and I can't imagine going wheels up at top speed with a group of racers ready to run you over! Great picture!

    The 208 is right on them.


    My new beer holder spilled some on the trails - in it's hair and down it's throat.
    Joe Camel never does that.

    My sister used to run over me with my Colt (a lot) I think she really enjoyed it. I was thinking that it may be a little different with a whole bunch of them going over you at full bore, but who knows?
