The look of being at the races, 100 years ago

I think the image is from http://5window.tumbler.com/

Old (1930's) race car transporter, and really old (1922) race car transporter

Photo taken in 1922, hard rubber tire Scammel hauling Sunbeam racecar... bumpy ride on old country cobblestones

Not sure which site I borrowed the top photo from, probably http://5window.tumbler.com/

The race cars have returned! They'll be racing on North Island NAS all weekend, it's called Speedfest. They met at Orange and Isabella for a car show

Driven from the pits of the track on NAS Miramar, and over to Orange and Isabella near the Hotel Del Coronado... in the usual location of the Coronado car show that happens each spring in March or April

Two Lagondas were there... way cool! Above and below are both Lagondas

Keep fresh spark plugs handy... great idea!

A couple of interesting things from the King of Clubs event

Normally this much smoke means brush fire here in So Cal, but not here at the 1/8th mile dragstrip... around a dragstrip this is just a good start
