Spridget #909

Owner-Nial McCabe

Here's my "Spridget" at various road-race circuits including Lime Rock,Watkins Glen,Summit Point,Pittsburgh Vintage GrandPrix @ BeaveRun, etc. Many photo credits on this page go to Dave Zipkin of Fast Forward Photo ( fastforwardphoto@yahoo.com ).

The car was mostly used for eastern USA club racing and endurance racing but it has been "retired" and is now used for vintage events only. The engine in this car is internally stock and likely has less than 70 HP on a good day.

Prior to 2007, the car was numbered "#11". As of 2008, the car has been changed to "#909".
