July 12 will be the 40th anniversary of Richard Petty's win in the Schaefer 300 at Trenton Speedway in New Jersey. I'm a life long Petty fan and several friends of mine and I are members of a self-appointed Schaefer Beer Racing Hall of Fame.(Many of our more recent racing adventures are blogged here .)

I'm wanting to write a blog entry about the King's win on July 12, 1970 at the kidney shaped track.

I'm always on the lookout for new info on Petty history. But I'll tell ya - info on this race is very elusive. I have 2 photos provided by a friend who attended the race as a kid, but that's it. Google searches haven't been much help beyond the finishing order. Even searching Google's newspaper and book archives hasn't yielded much.

This site has been a goldmine of fantastic photos, memories, anecdotes, etc. I'm hoping there is a vein of such information here about the 1970 race at Trenton. I'll appreciate any photos, stories, web links, you'd like to share. Feel free to contact me at my Racers Reunion page or post something at RR for all to see.

Would love to see photos, programs, ticket stubs, anecdotes/memories, etc. I'll be glad to source anything that comes my way in the blog.
