Hello IOW friends,

Most of these photos I am sure many have already seen a time or two.

A few photos of Oswego Speedway's long racing history.

Supermodified veterans, champions, legends, and friends from here and there at the Big "O."

Have a good day...see you at the races

I grew up watching Mike Johnson and Buzz Gregory. Mike, I think, has never gotten his due. He was a great racer in what ever car he raced, sprints or midgets. I was 7 years old when I saw Buzz win the 1969 Little 500.
