Indiana Dirt Tracks?? ---- All Of them. QUESTION?
Indiana Dirt Tracks
All Of them. QUESTION? So, I have been following this Facebook page "Speedway Car Cams" and they are doing t-shirts for each state and they are printing every dirt track on each states t-shirt.

Do yourself a huge favor. Get on Ebay and buy a copy of Allan Brown's History of the American Speedway you won't regret it. There are many others in Indiana not listed there was Walnut Gardens, Carey's Ranch, a different State Fair track, .....they are all there with brief history.

In my open opinion that is one of the best Motorsports books ever made and printed. The history of racing in North America to me is truly a fascinating one. From board tracks to the high banks to the flat tracks to the small figure 8 tracks like the Indianapolis Speedrome. |
