How old were you when you went to your first race?

My first race was 1951 at BIR, Birmingham, 12 at that time, would ride my bike about a mile on Sunday afternoons.
Next up, ICE BOWL for the Saturday finals, then on to East Bay in February, camping for a week.

Don’t remember it, but I’m told by my parents they had me sitting on my dad’s truck hood in a baby carrier at 4 months old trackside at Hartwell Speedway.

There was a moment where it looked like I would be born at EAMS. My mom went into some sort of false labor 3-4 weeks before I was due.

Honestly no clue. Before I could walk and probably Dixie.

Probably about 5 or 6 yrs old at Windber speedway in Pa....long gone now but track was around a high school football field...lots of good tight racing

It’s not racing but my first recollection of anything motorsports related was 5/6 years old and watching my dad and uncle do motorcycle hill climbs…….

First one ? To long ago to remember to be honest. Started out following my dad's car to various tracks in the late 50's to early 60's . Took a break from 64 to 68 because of his passing then started going myself in 68. I've had the pleasure of doing everything from cleaning tires to driving to owning cars at one time or another. I miss the 80's as I think that was the greatest of times in dirt racing.

I would say about 4 or 5. My dad drove coupes at the old sunset speedway in Omaha on Sundays and playland Speedway on Saturdays
