Driving a racecar to the track?

Stock Car Racing History

in 1960 Bubba Farr drove his 1955 ford from a shop in datona to the track for the modified race.he won that race.i was there trying to help.i also have pictures taken with the car at the motel the next morning,with the few of us that were with him.

THE KANGAROO COURT DID ITS DUTY TODAY

Current NASCAR

I THINK THAT NASCAR DECIDES WHO THEY WANT TO BE FOUND ILLEGAL,THEN THE SO CALLED INSPECTORS FIND SOMETHING WRONG.FOR YEARS THE RHUMOR HAS BEEN THAT CERTAIN TEAMS GOT THROUGH INSPECTION WITH NO PROBLEMS,AND OTHERS ARE CHECKED FOR HOURS,AND WERE GIVEN A WARNING,AND SOME FINED

A Question that was asked to me about this weekend at Augusta

MICHAEL SIDENER, I CAME TO AUGUSTA IN 1953.OF COURSE THE FIRST THING I HAD TO DO WAS CHECK OUT RACE TRACKS.BILL MATHENY WAS DRIVING A CAR FOR AN OWNER IN WAYNESBORO GA.HA QUIT DRIVING A FEW YEARS LATER.I RAN THERE FROM 1954 UNTIL THE TRACK CLOSED,SOMEWHERE AROUND 1965.IT WAS A GREAT LITTLE TRACK.I HAVE A LOT OF GOOD MEMORIES FROM THERE.IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS I MAY BE ABLE TO ANSWER SOME OF THEM, FRED HARPER
