Bavarian 768 Posted October 2, 2022 Bit shaky camerawork, but the ten minutes of this 8mm silent home movie of a USA v WORLD Speedway test match in 1974 at Costa Mesa, California, is nevertheless worth watching. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lefty 1,268 Posted October 2, 2022 It's Auburn in Northern California. A great track promoted as 'Fast Fridays', located in Gold Rush Country, East of Sacramento. A post meeting session at The Shanghai was a great start to the weekend. Sadly closed but greatly missed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
