Some tracks drew big crowds ...and that track was one of them as I recall. There were lots of spectators even at my local track sometimes on a saturday night in the '60s. Those days are long gone. It was a different time and era for lots of reasons. If you view real dragracing as only high reving stick shift door cars..."to each his own" as the saying goes. They were fun to watch and race as I said but those days went the way of the rotary telephone.......
