The track as it appeared in 1970. The hill that these grandstands are built into is now grown over with trees and brush. The front wall that you see here is one of the only things remaining from the track and can be seen on the Ghost Speedways page for Sutton.
Ken Fralick (#58) wins, with Bev Bye coming in second. Ron Melson photo appeared in Wheelspin News.
