The great Los Angeles-to-Phoenix off-road race (more commonly known as "The Cactus Derby") was another of the terrific classics from the sport's early days. In its 1914 edition, track racing legend and barnstormer Barney Oldfield entered the same Stutz racer he had piloted to fifth place in that year's Indianapolis 500.
This video is a viral promotion for the Simeone Museum, a facility I know very little about, but on the surface appears outstanding. In June 2009 they ran an exhibition of two old race cars that figured prominently in what I like to call "the heroic age," or pre-1920 auto racing. One is a Stutz, another a Mercer.
