Looking for a Bloomington and Lawrenceburg track patch.
Does anyone have any info on where I can find these? Neither track had patches when I visited.

Hi There,

I would go to ebay's homepage, and type in the item you are looking for in the search bar. That would be your best bet, you'll be surprised how much older racing memorabilia is on ebay these days. Hope this helps.

You're right. There is a ton of old stuff.
I was able to find a Winchester patch and a Spencer Speedway(NY) patch that I needed.

You're kidding, right? Never been on Ebay? They call my car the Ebay Special, and that's a fact. Very easy to get hooked, either buying, or selling. Just get on Ebay, you can search, even as a visitor, just to look. Get to the search bar, and make it simple, make it short, just peck in what you're looking for, if it's a patch from Bloomington, if they ever had any, just peck in "Bloomington Speedway", and everything related to any Bloomington Speedway in the world, will appear before your eyes. Bob!

When I did Bloomington Speedway in ebay, I came up with a big fat goose egg. That in turn lead me to a buddy in NJ, which then lead me to signing up on this board which I hope to be a regular on from NC. Cornelius to be exact. Shane's town.

Yeh, that's what I got too, I tried Winchester Speedway, a few items there, so don't give up, if there is something out there, that's for sale, it'll be on Ebay. Bob!

At some of the NASCAR races there is a vendor with all types of racing patches. He has a lot of different speedway patches for sale. Not much help right now since I don't remember the name of the vendor but I will ask them the next time I see him at the track. Maybe they have an online site.

I found this article (it's two years old) about a patch collector with his phone number and e-mail address in it. Maybe he has some tips or advice for searching for patches. It couldn't hurt.
