    And everybody gets a smooch from a pretty girl! Cool old film. Lucky for me it’s slow at work today, only one interruption while watching it.

    Geezzz, when I was a kid we use to dance to one of the songs and the dance was called the "walk". Thanks HRP for reminding me how old I am.

  7. What I was referring to is whoever posted the video had some good taste in music unlike some of the vintage footage with that damned techno music that sounds like someone is torturing a cat! HRP

    The days of cast iron balls! Bet they thought they had died and gone to heaven when they got to Pikes Peak Speedway.

    I'm feeling 19---47 or 48. Maybe as early as '46 but I think 48 is closer. IMHO, it's no later than 1950.

  16. What a hoot! Kind of a hill-climb road-course Baja race! :eek:

    And of course the music was great. :D It included The Ventures "Walk, Don't Run".

    And "Sleep Walk" by Santo & Johnny. Remember when an instrumental could hit #1?

  20. WOW!
    Very cool. Roadsters, racing, pretty girls, rockin' music. What's not to like?
    Did I leave out pretty girls?
    Thanks, Danny!

    I'm surprised at how few views and how few replies there are to this thread. It's great!

  29. Back in the early days of NASCAR the drivers biggest fear was fire and being trapped in the car so they wanted a open cars, they were smart enough to use seat belts & roll bars. HRP

    @Countn'Carbs Do you know anything about this footage? I understand you know a fair amount about the Denver timing Association and might be able to shed some light as to date and so on. I was looking for the T-33 roadster but didn't see it. I saw a number 33 but wasn't sure if it was Cal Kennedy or not.
