Book Synopsis The Historic Manzanita Speedway in Phoenix by : Larry Upton
Download or read book The Historic Manzanita Speedway in Phoenix written by Larry Upton and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2012-01-30 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Phoenix's Manzanita Speedway, the last of the big dirt tracks located near the central corridor of a major metropolitan area, is now gone. The track opened in the early 1950s when Jack Holloway, president of the Arizona Jalopy Racing Association, along with Avery Doyle and Gene Gunn, set about convincing Rudy Everett and Larry Meskimen to convert their unprofitable dog-racing operation into a quarter-mile dirt track. On August 25, 1951, Everett and Meskimen beamed with excitement as Manzy opened to an overflowing crowd. They had tapped into America's post-World War II craze for automobiles and found their own Lost Dutchman Gold Mine in the process. Manzanita Speedway dominated dirt-track racing in Phoenix and was heralded as one of the top five dirt tracks in the United States. Manzy became an integral part of the racing culture in Phoenix, and its sale and closure in 2009 created a sense of lingering disappointment.

Download or read book Indiana's Lost Speedways and Legendary Drivers written by David Humphrey with the Indiana Racing Memorial Association and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2021 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Indianapolis 500 Motor Speedway to the dirt oval tracks in small Indiana towns, thousands of Hoosiers frequent the raceway of their choice each year. Today, there are an estimated 40 asphalt, clay, and dirt-covered oval tracks in Indiana where race fans cheer local drivers, often navigating jalopies pieced together from junkyard parts, to victory lane. Though many racetracks remain in operation throughout the state, dozens have fallen to the wayside over the past 100 years. Forever in remembrance are the famous and not so famous Indiana-born drivers who thrilled fans at those now defunct tracks. Evansville native Charlie Wiggins won the Gold and Glory Sweepstakes four times. Bob Kinser from Bloomington raced over 40 years and is an inductee of the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame, and Tom Cherry of Muncie won the Little 500 four times.

Download or read book Perspective written by Larry Upton and published by . This book was released on 2012-04-12 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most history comes to us through the exploits of the famous and infamous. Rarely does history record the stories, legends, and folklore of the ordinary people who did the grinding, backbreaking work of building families, communities, and nations. This book is part of a journey of self-discovery as the author follows the Upton and Minton families as they establish their foothold in America long before there was a United States; in some ways it is the connecting story of all ordinary Americans. Readers may find perspective and a sense of continuity with their own families as the author follows the paths of his ordinary, yet remarkable family.
