John Ireland starred in a movie named Fast and Furious and a white XK-120 was heavily featured. Clearly, it was filmed at this track. It is one of the many hoaky racing movies of that era and was not very good but the XK and the paddock scenes set my heart racing. My guess it was filmed in 1957. I loved seeing the Pooper, Dan Gurney, and the many specials. Thank you for this gem.

Lovely stuff. Could be Vaca Valley in the early shots. Definitely a Paramount Ranch CSCC meeting for most of the video (yellow guardrail), 1956 or 1957 I think.

This was NOT Vaca Valley. It was as flat as a pancake.
