Title: Classic New York Racing Part One
Post by: The Thorn on June 12, 2023, 01:30:15 PM: Seems to be a lot of newer people here from this generation .. I'll make this a several part series, showing some the best horses and classic races but with good video quality .. Most of the 60s stuff is poor b & w so it's gonna be mostly 70s to start.

This is awesome historic nostalgia, I truly wish they restore the video and sound to HD quality - whoaa - like the bionic man "they can rebuild him....", makes so much better watching and listening, but for the time being awesome, thanks Thorn! tmbz1
