Hey guys, Just happened on to this neat forum and joined immediately. I live in Clarion County, Pa. and have been doing some research on long closed up circle tracks in Pa. and New York, this looks like a great place for info. It's fun, a bit depressing at times but, I enjoy it. I am presently searching out pictures and information pertaining to the old Pine Grove Speedway in Shippenville, Pa. which was a sanctioned NASCAR track, the was one NASCAR race run there, in 1951, won by Tim Flock, who was no slouch in NASCAR. The track was the site of a horrible accident in '57 that killed 2 spectators; The track closed not long after that. I am looking for info per who the promoters/owners were and other general information. There is one guy I know who ran there and is still around, though in poor health, Jim Colwell. I hope to discuss the track, which is still there and quite visible, with Jim soon.Thanks, Harley1.
