Argentine 500 miles Race 1929

Hi Partners,
looking for some Durant Race cars i found this incredible images of the first "Argentine 500 miles" made in the Rafaela City , Santa Fe Province in 1929
The images are the original ones of time, has only added him sound to make most realistic the old film.

Walter,

Thank you for sharing that. I enjoyed seeing those cars race, it sure seems that they are travleing very fast. From some of the angles, a few of the shots must have been taken by an airplane.
