For those who do not know, like me, the Irwindale Speedway is located just a few miles north east of Los Angeles off the 605 freeway.

Flathead, This year's Nationals will be in Irwindale but next May it will be back at Fontana's AAA 1/4 mile track. Irwindale is a 1/8th mile.

I really miss the times when I was still living in the US. I was located in Michigan and there was always a car show every weekend. Spend a lot of time watching races at the Miland Dragway. A couple of times a year they also had vintage race action.
Enjoy the races.
