I grew up in College Hill, what was then a surburan area of Cincinnati, in the 50's. My Dad had a friend that owned a Sohio gas station that sponsored an old coupe at the Cincinnati Race Bowl. My Dad became a co-sponser for the whopping sum of $100.!!! so we went every Saturday night.
Sometime around 1954 my Dad took me to a special Wed. night AAA midget race.. Oh Boy! The late, great Travis "Spider" webb even let me sit in the cockpit after the race. There's more to this, but not for here.
