Vintage raceing scenic

[Jimmy B]

Here is a different take on my walk around the circuit at pacific raceways. The event is a big fund raiser for Seattle Children's Hospital.
More of the normal race shots to follow.
I hope you enjoy these, C&C welcome

Great series, Jimmy. After seeing the usual assortment of racing shots, I like to get a different perspective. The scenery is a nice touch.

How I love where we live.

These are totally different from all the other racing shots I've seen here. The first one is my fave. Love it.

Nice stuff Jimmy. I really like the last one with the yellow car frozen and then 3 cars ahead each with increasing amounts of blur. Sweet.

Thanks all figured I would try something a bit different:-)

Ouch! that hurts I remember scenes like these in a couple episodes of Wide World of Sports....back the 60's. There are also some old racing films I have seen from the 50's that remind me of these, only in B&W....the color looks much better!

Sorry, dont mean to bring up sore points....Being a child of the 70's basically means that motor racing involved crash barriers (well kinda)

Yeah yeah, sure....lol Thats OK Hoffy, I was told I was going to sprint car races before I was born, and back then helmets and roll bars were not required, and most of the tracks in the country were dirt. At least I know where the racing bug came from, and who to blame it on :thumbsup:
