Can't tell you much about that track but something most people probablly don't know is that Ellis Park -- the horse racing track near Evansville-- had auto races for a year or two in the 1920s. Bill McCoy of Sullivan, Ind., won the first race. When the track was finished, there was a conflict on holding horse races and with the owners needing to take in some money to pay the bills they had auto races.
Was the Evansville Speedrome also the track known as Pride Speedway?
