Los Angeles is famous for its orange groves, bathing beauties, sunshine and Hollywood blockbusters. Long forgotten is that it was also home to more auto racing and innovation than anywhere else in the world.

With hundreds of vintage photos, lost archival footage and revealing interviews, WHERE THEY RACED is the documentary series that reunites the ghost tracks of Los Angeles with the cars that ran them and gets the families, historians and experts to tell the tales that give this history a victory lap by preserving these fading memories.

Be sure to stop by every Tuesday as we plan on featuring the complete series and next week will feature the Santa Monica Road Races and important racing cars of the Los Angeles area as seen below.

Wow, that is great to see all those Barney Oldfield photos and other early racing photos. Very entertaining and everyone should watch it. I assume they will be covering a lot of Ford cars as they get into the next film?

That car at the end and in your post is a replica of the Winfield Ford car. Man that thing goes. Thanks can't wait to see the next one.

Glad to hear that both of you enjoyed it, I am going to be speaking with Harry Pallenberg the Producer / Director in the next few days about it. You are correct, that is a replica of the Winfield Ford T car that Rick Rawlins built and has been racing. I bet we will be treated with many Ford racing cars....As they used to say.....Stay tuned this is going to be a great series.
