When I changed my tack to say that I raced in the "UK's answer to NASCAR" it got a more understanding response, or a "what's that", where "Stock Car" always got "oh, what? like Bangers?"

So, do you understand where I'm coming from here? Or is that chip on your shoulder too big?

Calling it Late Models will bring a "What's that then", rather than a "no, not interested"
And that in my opinion is a good thing.

Okay, I understand why using the Late Model name.
