If memory serves correctly,(and it doesn't too often) It was late 40's at the Columbus Speedway on the hill. My first open wheel race was the AAA midgets at the old 16th street speedway in 1949, won by Johnny Parsons.Also about the same time saw midgets race at the Jeffersonville Sportsdrome.A friend of my fathers named Bob Wilson had a midget and raced there.
