I think it IS Uncle Petey in that 43 car!

Living just miles from this track, I used to hear the cars running on race day. My mom would complain coming out the grocery store because all the cars were covered in dust from the track!

Now, the weeds have grown up all around it and its just sitting there. We have been tempted several times to break in and have our own "test and tune" until the police come and kick us out. :lol:

It's still up for sale last time I checked. Anyone interested? NEETS can have their own track! I know we can then bring MORE than one car!!! But you would also have to buy all the other properties around it so the neighbors don't complain about dirt and noise! :disgusted

Anyone want to invest? We have all the officials we would need to run a full-fledged program there! Of course....enduros would be the MAIN event each night, but who didn't see that coming?

If only I knew some richER people......

Yup! That was yours truely, last race at the old dirt Nazareth Speedway before it was "DOZED" under for another shopping mall...............:*-(
It was advertised as the "SUPER ENDURO" and the race paid $10,000 to the winner................:applause:
I think Timmy finished 3rd or 4th..................:cheers:
I finished 5th or 6th and I got paid almost $1000......................:)
Those were the days, you earned your money in those races................:help:
I remember one race at Nazareth that started over 360 cars, 300 laps or 3hours whichever came first.....................:eek:
UNCLE PETEY..................:wave: :wave: :wave: :wave: :wave:
