New England Antique Racers
The group had approximately 350-400 members and 80 antique race cars as of 2007.[1] The group has been inducting area racers in its hall of fame since 1998.[1] By design, the Hall has no permanent home. Instead, a mobile caravan of induction plaques, antique race cars and memorabilia is displayed at major auto racing shows and events in the region.
