during recess when you won your
first race, or the team won the big
event? Or On the sidewalks you
had your homemade scooter =
made of an old roller skate and
couple of pieces of wood, and in
the winter time, your gang had ice
skating events on the lake, river or
pond? All of these were your intro
duction to the great challenge of
winning a race. The boys in the
fast stock cars are just as we were,
in wanting to win a race, and at
the same time provide us with the
thrills and excitement that we all
crave in this clean sport.
