We didn’t have a per say high school class where you could race before you were 16 but he started pretty early. I bought a very nice 1972 duster when he was 15 that he was supposed to make payments on. I ended up keeping then selling it and I gave him the 1970 duster above. He made his first passes in it before he was born while my ex was racing it. He started very young but I can’t remember how young.
