I don’t know if you would call my first race a sprint race. Technically, they were called super modifieds, and it was in 1964 (I think) at Tri-State Speedway in Haubstadt, IN. It was a 200 lap race, and it got so dusty we could barely see the cars, and I couldn’t tell you who won. It didn’t matter, I was HOOKED!

My first TRUE sprint car race was July 4, 1967 and Greg Weld won in the Dunseth/Leffler #92.
