mabarker1 posted some news on the old thread:
BTW We just found out our local circle track is closing due to low attendance and very few cars showing up. The track saw various types of racing since the 1930s with a few years off here and there.This last run started in 1964

Good job!
Talked to Kenny Schrader at the PRI show here in Indy this week. He’s the most unassuming “everyman” looking guy you’d ever find. What a nice guy.
Merry Christmas to all my FReeping NASCAR FRiends!
Ernie Derr, 12 IMCA Stock Car Champion passed away on January 8th at the age of 92. He along with the other Keokuk Komets made Keokuk the racing championship capital of the country. Altogether they won 27 national championships Not NASCAR but important in stock car history. He was “The Man” and we will never see another like him. fellow townsmen Dick Hutcherson managed to rest 2 IMCA championships from him, Don White three. Two drivers that couldn’t Ramo Stott, who went on to win 2 ARCA and 1 USAC championships, and Ron Hutcherson, who won 3 ARCA championships. When I hear thunder this spring I will visualize Ernie in his red and white Hemi Charger and Dick Hutcherson in his gold and white 427 Ford battling it out on that big half mile dirt in the sky. Rest in Peace Ernie Derr, and thanks for the memories.
