The mile and a quarter speed oval
is planned and constructed so scien-

only limit to the speed that can be
made lies in the car itself. The
curves and straightaways are banked
at such an angle that it is unnecessary
to shut down anywhere. on the course.

was brought to its feet by the furious
brushes between the great steel mon-
sters as they hurtled around the track
skilfully piloted by their master driv-

rife was the speed, with it's two
