This awesome event started on the beach in Asbury Park, New Jersey, in 2012 and has now made its way to the West Coast. Mel Stultz, the mastermind behind it all, found the perfect spot at Flabob Airport in Jurupa Valley, just 60 miles east of Los Angeles. Join me in this video as we explore the thrilling event at Flabob Airport's auxiliary runway turned dragstrip, complete with a beautiful backdrop of vintage airplanes, palm trees, and clear blue skies. You'll see over 100 incredible vintage hot rods racing, revving, and being worked on! It's so cool to see that drag racing, which has roots in California dating back to the 1930s, is still alive and kicking today. The Race of Gentlemen truly captures the spirit of hot-rodding and pays homage to its early days. Thanks to Mel Stultz, this video offers a fantastic opportunity to step back in time and experience hot-rodding as it once was. Thanks to Mel for helping me get a press pass for the event! https://www.theraceofgentlemen.com/ Get my shirts here and use the code "FOURSPEED" (Buy two, get one free) https://www.amfilmfest.com/marketplace?Collection=Four+Speed Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/benkahan/ #fourspeedfilms #hotrod #trog #theraceofgentlemen #dragrace #v8 #flathead #california #1950s #racing #racecar #ww2planes #classiccars #vintagecars
