    It is like traveling back in time...looks more fun rather than competition, that is so cool.

    My grandfather said it was when they made iron men and wooden ships and now they make iron ships and wooden men.... But there is a small % that still are made like they were back in the day I wish pepe was still around to show him you guys.

    Watched this yesterday on facebook a couple of times and kept hitting the pause button over and over, so much to look at as an artist. Really some excellent footage for sure. Dug the tunes also Ryan. Yeah, I want a roadster, but then I always have wanted one.

    Yeah it showed up on FB a couple of days a go....totally amazing footage because it is so clear and focused.....finally some old footage by someone who actually knew what they were doing....Rathmann certainly looked all business and judging by his breathing he was pumped and ready for battle......music worked for me....especially "Seeing my world in black and white"......cool!
