All these pictures came about as a tribute to Big Willie and the L A Street Racers

Something is blocking the posting of the picture URL......
I can see the pictures on my computer, but the URL won't show for some reason.
These pictures were lost forever....but no longer........actually if we cannot view the pics......
The spacing is not mine........Need someone who has worked for Microsoft.....
This very well documents the Track and Cars at Terminal Island
However, There are two links that won't appear for some reason....

'BIG' WILLIE ROBINSON AND THE "BROTHERHOOD OF STREET ...

/

/In the wake of the 1965 Watts riots, legendary street racer Big Willie Robinson ... the building of Brotherhood Raceway Park on L.A. harbor's Terminal Island.

Huell visits Brotherhood Raceway on Terminal Island. Big Willie Robinson takes Huell on a tour of this legal drag-strip, where everybody comes to race their cars, motorcycles or anything with wheels.
