Here is a quick sample of what you'll see in the pits at Speedfest






The above is rare, it's a air cooled opposed piston engine like the VW... DB is the symbol on the nose of the car... stands for Duetsch something... I can't recall, but it was a French company and it was made for rally racing.



Above is a Railton
Lagonda

Big corrals of race cars!

That's not an oil leak, it's a Bugatti marking it's territory with horsepower sweat



The view the race car drivers have at Speedfest, racing on the airfield at Naval Air Station North Island, San Diego (leave your speakers off or low)

The audio is washed out by 130 miles an hour or wind over the cheap microphone, it's garbage, so ignore it



Speedfest is happening for the next two days, factory race cars, Trans Am racing series cars, older NASCAR cars, and drift racing cars






















Above, 2 cars fail to make it through the turns,


Third times the charm for getting a good video of a drifter up close and fast
