Biggest crowd at a Greater Vancouver speedway since the Digney Speedway days of the late 1940s.
Championship races, just dashes and main events. No heats. Drivers from The Island and south of the border.
Interesting to see the name of Bob Simpson from Victoria. His racing went back to the Langford Speedway days in the 1940s. Also a mention of Ray Pottinger from Nanaimo, another good racer.
While the clipping from Racing Wheels covers it nicely here's a quick recap:
Early-late dash: Dennis Corfe
