Original Title: York auto races, start of Wash cars
Location: 14th and I Streets in Washington D. C.
This was a nightmarish thing to fix. Originally I erased it and decided it wasn't worth it. Then gave it another go. I liked the thought that these guys were all in a race and it reminded of Cannonball run they had in the 1980's. It wasn't until I cleaned it all up that I found out that this was a normal paced, drive to the race track. But it still has its merits.
The first two red cars on the left, I made those colors based off descriptions of this race. They explained only the colors of those cars and not the others. Number 6 was a red car with white. Next to them was a bright red car, but I could not find color versions of these cars, despite knowing what models they were. The rest I was able to find. But guessed at the colors.
I still don't know what that cop thinks he will be doing in a 90 mile drive. This race is located on a street where only that park exists. It was taken at 12pm or so, in July.
