Probably an AAA Pacific Sprint Car race, but I've no stats. This sequence consisting of 10 frames from a moviefilms, is in the June 1948 issue of Speed Age, the content of which I hadn't seen until today, when I checked to see if it was on eBay, with more than just a cover scan. I suppose it's a scarce issue. Click to enlarge.
I have seen 100s of classic crash compilations, but I am certain this was in none of them, and the footage may be lost. If you find it, a link or the file would be much appreciated.
