Stock Island Speedway Florida
Historic Speedways and Ghost Tracks
although i grew up in michigan, i was born in key west, fla. and still have a lot of family down in the keys. my grandfather raced at the old stock island speedway back in the day, and held a championship or two. my grandmother as well raced the powder puff division there. my pops name was cecil black and drove what i believe was an old ford (white #54) with an old flat head v8.i posses one of the only remaining pics of his car, as well of a clipping from the key west paper of my grandmother (jane black) winning the powder puff championships. my question is i have had a hard time over the years finding much history on this track and its drivers, let alone pics. i know it was there i have family that was raised on that island, and i have walked on the remains of that track in my youth. if anyone has any history i could see or learn, i would love it. thanks for reading. -tony weakley
