Default Racing at Riverside

Some very cool video in a 2-part 8-min. clip.

Watching the Cobras...I am sure you will "see" many scenes captured in familiar vintage photographs.

Thanks for posting. Those crashes are insane. The racers back then sure earned their pay!

The entry list from the second race of the clip is here:
http://home.roadrunner.com/~fsheff/covtmgp64.htm

The first clip segment is Rvierside '63. I think the crash of Guldstrands #56 Corvette is what earned him his roller skate.

Oh, Tom, the Cheetah is not polished - it was a silver painted fibreglass car.

Great stuff Ron!
