(SOUNDBITE) (Russian) ORGANIZER, DMITRY VOYNOV, SAYING:"The oldest car here is a hardtop Chevrolet Delivery made in 1955. It was bought in America when it was new, back in 1955, and its owner used it for racing. It was racing its whole life. When the owner got old, he said that he would sell the car only if it kept racing. It was designed as a post and food delivery car, and became a great racing car."
Around 40 cars took part in races, while others were put on display
