Carolina Beach Speedway

Bobby Williamson of Shallotte, North Carolina sent me the following photos from a Carolina Beach Speedway program. For more information about the track and his first visit there, read his story.

 

The program cover from 1964 Carolina Beach Speedway.

Good size field of cars rounding the turn. Is that a Studebaker on the inside?
Crossing under the flag stand
Car #54 is future Cup car owner Hoss Ellington in a 57 Ford working the outside groove.
Lot different from the clay tracks in the Piedmont region, loose sand, plenty of racing room, exciting stuff.
The field heads into turn 1.
More turn 1 action
This is never a good sign, is that a old Ford?
2 wide racing coming out of the turn, always exciting.
