Big weekend of busy.

Pete Harding, oval racer

 Story from 2000 on Pete Harding. By then he had won a NASCAR title. And he still is winning.

big weekend in June 1968

Lots of things going on during the weekend of June 22-23, 1968:

The Westwood Pacific at Westwood.

An international regatta at Alouette Lake.

Two days of racing at Langley Speedway, including an "early-late jamboree".

And the two ads presented here for flat track motorcycle racing on the Cloverdale horsetrack and T.V. Tommy Ivo and one-legged Joe Winter at Mission Raceway.

Helluva weekend. Pretty typical of that era.

some links, some ads

Too much happening in my brain (chewing gum and walking at the same time syndrome) so a couple links.

Here's Pacific Raceways 1963, drag racing. Same guy has some cool sports car racing from that era.

And some 1970s Skagit Speedway shots of modifieds.

And a couple movie ads from way back when, when clubs were asked to bring out their cars to add to the show.
