74 Hutch Nationals
Mike Watson visited from Baldwin City Kansas United States
Thanks for posting the pictures from the 74 Hutch Nationals. I was 8 yrs old in 74 and I think of that event, that day, and that fire several times a year during the race season. It is easy to forget what those drivers are putting on the line every race for our enjoyment. I never forget. It was good to hear what Jack Petty has been up to since he hung up the helmet. 77 was my guy when I was a squirt. I cheered him on at Salt Hawk Speedway every week.

Max Kelton Madison aka:Peanuts
Kellie Madison Elliott visited from El Dorado Kansas USA
My father, Max Kelton Madison was a professional clown at the car races. His clown name was "Peanuts". Is there anyone left out there that remembers him? He clowned mostly in Hutchinson, Ks, Dodge City, Ks., and Wichita, Ks. at 81 Speedway. Thank You

Angie Howerton
Justin visited from Mannford Oklahoma
When I was a kid, in the 70's, Angie Howerton lived across the street from me. I loved to hear the racing stories about him and even his son Jackie. I look back and think that I probably annoyed him to no end. He always had some interesting project going on in his garage and would kindly answer all my questions. As I got older Angie spent more time in my garage helping keep my car going. Those are some cool memories. Thanks for the site.

I wish I was around back then

Mark Lewallen visited from Barling Arkansas us
Big thanks to Steve Bailey and Vic Buckholt for the pictures from Ozark Speedway and Beaver Lake Speedway. I remember getting to sit in the seat of Buck's shop in Bentonville as a little kid. I have a few pictures I would love to add to the collection. Thanks for the great job and thanks for restoring some of the old race cars. I wish that I could trade-off my factory stock for a vintage car and join you guys.

Jack "Jackie" Gibson
Diana Gibson - Rinehart visited from Raytown MO USA
I so adore that some one took the time to recognize my father. Also known as Gibbie, he is greatly missed. He was my hero. Several people are still calling to give his / our family their deepest sincerity of how he will be missed. Thank you as well.

Great pictures!
Sonny Dryer visited from Overland Park Kansas USA
Having grown up in Kansas City,my Mom,Dad, and I were constant fixtures at Riverside, Lakeside, and Olympic every week. I still get goosebumps when I drive by all the old "ghost" tracks. What a Thrill it was to see my All Time Favorite local driver, and Top 5 favorite driver of all time on here, "Tiger" Bob Williams. I never got to meet him and even at age 10 or 11 I would have been nervous as heck if I'd ever gotten the chance. I don't know if he ever checks in here or not....But nobody, could sling the mud up into the Grandstands like you Bob!!...Thanks for the Fantastic memories, Your still my "HERO" Warm Regards Sonny Dryer

Super Modifieds
Steve Foster visited from Bixby Oklahoma USA
Your site is really great. Brought back a lot of memories. I drove Supers in OKC, Tulsa, Enid, Lawton, Wichita, Dodge City, Liberal, Hutch and other fun places. In 1970 I was Rookie of the Year in OKC in Supers driving the 96 car for Allen Kohen. From then until about '82 I was fortunate enough to get some good rides with Aaron Madden in his 1 car, Larry Hill in the 9 car when it was brand new out of the Nance shop, Dave White's 24 car, and Charlie Lavicky in his 50 car out of Enid. Also got one ride in Jerry Wilsons' car at Dodge City. Thanks again. I will dig around and see if I can find some old pictures for you if you could use them.
