IRWINDALE RACEWAY!!

It looks to be from back in the 70s when the track (drag strip and motocross/speedway motorcycle track) was located on the site of what is now Miller beer. I grew up in west covina and my dad owned a union 76 station in monrovia and we would drive past the track while going to work with him. When the top fuel cars ran there in the late 60s early 70s I could hear them out my bedroom window (about 10 miles away) I was in elementary school and I remember the last race at Irwindale several guys who lived on my street who ran their street cars there regularly.
