Born Free, Del Mar Short Track. Grassroots racing at its best...

 When we arrived,Track looked great !
 First session on the track.
 Turns 4, that's not an Air Fence, Didn't see anyone hit it.
 Grassroots means Three Wheelers and Quads. Well, they have full fields and put on some some spectacular sideways racing. Don't know if 3-wheelers are popular everywhere, but in Cal, yes for sure.
 Pretty, potent and perfectly ridden. This Triumph pre-unit twin in an Ariel frame was unbeatable in Vintage Twins. Aussie Style with Knobby front/Trials Rear.
 Trick Trumpet 500

 The Crowl's Triumph has been a fixture in these parts since '59. The famous brothers running out of their Torrance, Cal Speed Shop for many, many decades. These days the bike is being campaigned out of Century BSA, San Pedro ( Los Angeles Harbor), Cal
