Sorry to say , I don't have pics or films of those good 'ol races . I spent many Friday and Sat. nights at those tracks , and Sundays at Harris . I was there when NASCAR ran , and still remember seeing Petty and the others run there . It would be great to see some movies of them .... Ed

Someone has posted pictures for Harris...possible Rutherford as well. I remember seeing them. Possibly Randy Gilbert. If you search the photo galleries, you might turn up some photos.

CW,There is also a group here at RR called "Tracks Gone But Not Forgotten". You might stir up some memories by joining that group.

HRA also sanctioned Lancaster and Starlite Speedway. I worked with John Reynolds at both tracks back then. Even still got a couple of the rule books.
