Default Film Friday Classic racing in living color at Bridgehampton

Subject: chilly out there!

If you are feeling a bit chilly with the top down, watch this tape sent to me last week by several people.

Sunny skies at Bridgehampton with the ocean as a backdrop.....some fun footage!


One of my favorite scenes is where our film guy in his Healy is battling it out with a couple similar competitors and it looks like they are really going fast, when suddenly two D-Jaguars and what looks like a Cunningham blow by everyone like they were tied to posts! (Jaguar set the world speed record that year). Unfortunately nothing lasts forever and by the time Bridgehampton closed in 1998 -- another victim of land appreciation and neighbors with sensitive ears -- its best days were already long behind it. It's a swanky golf course now, but this film is a stirring look at its glory days.

Enjoy!
