I was 12 when my dad took me to see my first dirt track race. That was the 1975 Hoosier Hundred at the Fair Grounds. You can imagine who was in the lineup!
Tom Bigelow won and Foyt was second. Not sure who you were thinking of?
Well, a big portion of the Indy 500 grid of course.
Interesting that Foyt had the pole for the 500 and Bigelow was last. Foyt finished the 500 in 3rd, Bigelow in 18th.
Back then it was a great race!

Any other dirt track fans? Was able to make USAC at Haubstadt few weeks ago and Indiana Midget Week at Putmanville.

Foyt cheated on a regular basis. But he was Foyt and he had G. Bignotti running the show so that's how that worked out.
Funny thing about the 500, the Karma there is strong. 100 years in the making.
Asphalt is for driving to the track.Dirt racing...tater diggers! LOL just kidding just kidding
I have only ever been to one dirt race, but have always loved watching sprints cars and dirt late models. I even always wanted a chance to drive a dirt late model. Since all racing is good, but some is better than others, I will probably troll in here from time to time
This is my kinda thread. I go to putnamville quite a bit. Got a few buddies that race there sometimes.
Will have to meet up sometime. We go almost every Saturday
