I thought some of your sport car fans would like to see some of these old cars racing way back in the 550′s. As the owner of the very first Austin Healey in the USA, and a memer of the San Diego Jr. Chamber, we developed/built the Torrey Pnes Race Track…and I had acces to shoot 8mm film. Sort of historic stuff…..enjoy
I fully Agree, just look at these amazing cars thrashing around the track !
Gullwings, C type , d type, XK’s, A bunch of specials, Porsches, Healays, Allard, Bristol, MG.
WOW
I love that arnolt Bristol very excellent. I wish I could have been there, but I get to pretend when I race my 57 Alfa and 63 356 in vintage events. Tell us about your Vintage race Experiences, we would love to hear about them. Torrey Pines Road Races - Jan. 1956 from Harlo on Vimeo.
