The Northwest Arkansas Racing
Lap #3
Many of the photos of this page were from Arkansas tracks in Fort Smith, Fayetteville, Beaver Lake, Van Buren, Springdale or Roland in Eastern, Oklahoma. Many of the Oklahoma and Missouri drivers made visits to these Northwest and Western Arkansas tracks on a regular basis. Thanks go out to Jim Farmer, Vic Bockholt, Steve Bailey and Larry Owen who contributed photos.

Junior Leon Gray's car taken at Flying Saucier Speedway around 1955. Preston Gray believes that Phil Sangston was the Driver at the time however he also used Robert Kupp as a driver around then. He later built the Brute #71 which was a 32 Deuce Coupe and Sangston went on to win several trophys in the area and did very well for quite a while.
Junior's grandson Preston id this car after several years of viewers not be able to id it.

Jackie Greb drove this at Muskogee and Mack Thompson drove it at Fort Smith in 1967.
I'm not sure many classic car collectors enjoyed seeing this.
