I attended races at Ct Dragway in the early 60's and remember seeing Taska Ford, Thompson Pontiac GTO, a blue Pontiac Ventura, Don Gartlets, etc run. I think I have some 8 mm films from those days in CT. I guess I'll have to look for them. I also might have some films from Charleston RI. Other things I remember -- a big black Chevy GAS coupe that was used as a tow car for a little GAS Anglia that did fantastic wheel stands.
I may be getting the two tracks confused---Oh well that comes with age!

Convert them to cd or dvd and put them on you tube.
I worked both at Charleston and Conn and I would like to see them. If you have them converted, I would be willing to pay for a copy.

Thanks for the welcome!
I'm pretty sure I have them someplace. They will be on 8mm film.
