Midgets at Daytona Speedway Spectacular March 22-23. 1996


Right at the entrance at gate 7 was a display of older stockcars

and some beutiful midget racers from days gone by

Reminders of when racing was racing and men were men! I can still taste the clumps of oiled down clay that flew when I was a kid at the Motor City Speedway in Michigan.
The announcer was Fred Wolf and the racers were Iggy Katana, Cal Niday, and many others. If you like this see, the Tex Smith collection in the publications section and order the roaring roadsters book.


The Gerstler Special, what a beaut!


This red job looks like it came right from Flat Rock Speedway in Michigan in the 50's.
