Saturday Night Heroes
Stock Car Racing History
Hey Folks!
Wish I could share a "story." I can't remember much about any particular event at the track I attended in my early youth. Just remember a fun time, loving the cars and the noise they generated. And I loved being in a wide open area in the infield.I remember my favorite driver was Tiny Lundand I remember meeting Buddy Baker in the pit area.I also recallan occasional demolition derby. My Pappy drove in those sometimes and he sponsored cars on various nights. I will make a point to interview him soon to gather more details.
In the meantime, I'm posting this little ditty I recently found again. Me at the Columbia Speedway in the 60's. If you look hard, you can see the speedway lights in the background.
