This evening, Parkersburg, WV native and racing legend Paul Goldsmith will be one of nine inducted into the Mid Ohio Sports Hall of Fame for 2008. For the trivia buffs out there, Paul is the only racer to have won races on the Daytona beach course on both a motorcycle and in a stock car.http://www.newsandsentinel.com/page/content.detail/id/505702.html?nav=5063

Very close to my home town. Congrats to Paul! Great accomplishments in this sport. I am also proud to have this Mid Ohio Sports Hall of Fame in my back yard. I know that the biggest roots of this sport are in the south, but there are an enourmous amount of true racers and history here also. I am going to have to research the roots and race tracks of this area and ask my grandpa Dodge, a grassroots racer himself, from the 1950's and 60's. Who he may think was one of the true Legends from his area, or Ohio. Thanks for the post. Great legendary information. Thanks, Dale Dodge Jr.
