    Wow! Super cool! Okay historians, which track was that? I don't recognize that from any of my pictures. Could it be the track that was supposed to be on a ranch north of L.A.? I notice it's early post war too, 'cause the ranks haven't been completely overrun with purpose built "T"s quite yet.

    A great selection of film clips showing early roadster racing, the cars and the men who drove them!

    I'll guess Porter Ranch or Paramount Ranch. Extremely cool to see these cars in action!
    That is some great work.

    This is a great video. Really enjoyed watching.

    Can someone that is more computer savy than me help with downloading it. I tried to down load and saved but then my computer does not recognize the file type and will not open it. Any help would sure be appreciated. Thanks.
