Widzimy kierowców – zarówno tych sławnych, jak i mniej znanych – ekipy techniczne, mechaników, widzów i fanów sportu motorowego, działaczy, paparazzi, sędziów sportowych oraz wielu innych. Na filmie zarejestrowanych zostało w sumie 70 osób.

I invited into the studio the entire human ecology of the former track, including both celebrity and lesser known race car drivers, pit crew and mechanics, fans and spectators, flaggers and racing officials, paparazzi, and so forth. All in all, I filmed approximately 70 individuals in the studio whose lives intersected at the Bridgehampton Race Circuit. There were no actors, photo stills or digital effects employed. It is a highly eclectic community of individuals who were brought together through a shared passion, both for a sport and for a particular place. Many of them fought tooth and nail for several years against the track’s closing. While life has moved on, memories of their “heroic,” and not so heroic, youthful days and achievements at the track have remained.
