VIDEO EARLY 1960'S LEWISTOWN DRAG RACES– Woody Woodford has put together a video from 8mm home movies taken by (young at the time) Rod Richards in about 1965 using his parents movie camera. It is typical 8mm home movie, short, jerky, under/over exposed, out of focus scenes. However Woody did manage to capture, digitize and edit some of it with reasonable results (compared to the original) Thanks Woody VIDEO
