The nostalgic beach-town of Wildwood, New Jersey hosted the 3rd annual 'Race of Gentlemen' this previous year. The small - yet iconic town undergoes an immense, and almost unrecognizable transformation as the influx of car and motorcycle enthusiasts invade the titular Jersey getaway with their timeless creations. Engines sputter; smoke bellows; and rubber is churned. The main event takes place within a small pocket along the shore-line. It's setup is rudimentary, yet effective: a strip of sand; a few checkered flags; and a shit-ton of ambition. The races are cyclical, yet unpredictable. A forgotten past time essentially, rejuvenated. I was gifted the opportunity to film last years event. So I poured into my overalls, lassoed my camera, and hit the sand. Here's what I captured... Enjoy!
