"Where they raced" dvd just came out, here are a couple of clips






WHERE THEY RACED: Speed Demons in the City of Angels tells the story of a pre-gridlocked Los Angeles... a time ripe with orange groves, movie stars, year-round sunshine and more auto racing and innovation than anywhere else in the world. This documentary film is told with hundreds of vintage photos, lost archival films and revealing interviews that reunite the ghost tracks of Los Angeles with the cars that raced on them to give these fading memories a victory lap.

You will not find a more complete perspective on the historic Southern California racing scene. - AUTOWEEK

I can't tell how the front blades aren't hitting the ground, but, obviously they haven't



interestingly some of the very first airplanes that could fly intercontinental were named "spirit of" and "city of"


immediately reminded of http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2012/05/1983-jawa-ice-motorcycle-only-eastern.html






are they nuts? Han't they been shown the famous photo? Never drive a orange crawler over a crevass!




from Mad Max of course.... I've never seen this screen grab before though










all from lecontainer.blogspot.com

wow... the 1968 Le Mans effort of a Gulf Oil Ford GT 40 of John Wyer was filmed by the brake company Ferodo, and titled, "Don't start something you can't stop" Sir Stirling Moss narrates



Amazing! Just the lap that Moss narrates is very cool, and that is only a entry to the film! Found on http://silodrome.com/never-start-something-you-cant-stop/

oh man, this is incredible, I just found the 1956 one lap narrated by someone else, but he is going along while ordinary pedestrians and traffic are on the course!

Concept artist Harold Belker... you didn't know his name, but admired his contibutions to some great sci fi movies like Tron Legacy, Minority Report, XXX, and Total Recall

a bit of humor, a bit of entertainment, a short by Wes Anderson ... "Castello Cavalcanti"

Matt Hazan, custom bike builder, a 4 minute quick documentary

Building the #6207, an engine of the Princess Royal Class a 1935 documentary of 17 minutes

A Pinch Of Salt, the movie by Josh Clason of 5 minutes to share the love of racing on the salt

screen captures from the Disney movie "The Strongest Man in the World"



Medford's goofy Dean Higgens drove a beaut of a Model A


Kurt Russel who played the character Dexter Rily in at least 3 movies, but behind him, look at the cars on the backlot... a Dart, Barracuda, and Mustang
