Scott Bloomquist is on a real tear this spring with his dirt late model. So, what else is new? Here he is in 1988, winning the World 100 at Eldora on his first try. He won it again in 1990 for good measure, paying no heed to a broken wrist.

This minimalist modified was built by Bob McCreadie, racer extraordinaire and Dad to Timmie (T-Mac). It was so light and so narrow that when Bob started driving and winning with it in 1975, he had to take his boots off to work the pedals. That’s, they say, when he earned his nickname “Barefoot.” From BAREFOOT – The Autobiography of Bob McCreadie, as told to Andy Fusco. (Wayne Storey Photo)

Can you imagine? This was the board track, Kansas City Speedway. The opener in 1922 was won by Tommy Milton at an average of 107 mph. On lap 110, Rosco Sarles crashed fatally. The facility was closed three years later. (Dale Snyder Collection)

That is one scary steep track! Hate the thought of oil or water getting on the wood!

Just wondering when they spin out on a high banked wooden track like that, is the smoke coming off the tires or off the burning wood? Lol
