Under the motto „Race on Sunday - Sell on Monday“, numerous so-called
„Club
Races“ took place in the USA in the 1950s and enjoyed
great popularity among those actively involved as well as spectators. In
these races, motor-sport-enthused private drivers were able
to probe their driving skills and simultaneously push their mainly
production-line sports cars to the limit, legally. The
corresponding vehicle dealers also put on suitable transport vehicles in
support
of their customers‘ vehicles at race tracks like
Laguna Seca, Eagle Mountain or Elkhart Lake. For example, Volkswagen and
Porsche
dealer „Continental Motors“ of Fort Lauderdale in
Florida operated an elegant and remarkable vehicle-trailer combination,
consisting of an original VW T1 tractor unit and the
associated trailer. Thus vehicles such as the Porsche 550 Spyder or the
Porsche 718 Spyder were able to be transported.
