Hello my name is Blake Smith Jr. I am only 24 years old so my racing stories don't date back too far, but I love to hear stories and see pictures.
My grandfather is Bill Smith. If anyone knows him or has any stories about him I would love to hear them. I will try and post some pictures that he has from Englwood Speedway in the 50's.
Thanks

Hi Blake, glad to have you here. Can't wait to see what pictures your grandfather has.
I don't have any stories about him, but I did notice Bill Smith listed as driver for the #10 Stocker in the 1961 Englewood Speedway program posted here under 'Race Tracks'. Melvin Malet is listed as owner.

My grandfather is Bill Smith. If anyone knows him or has any stories about him I would love to hear them as he is very hard to get to tell stories of his past racing. I will try and post some pictures that he has from Englwood Speedway in the 50's.
ThanksWelcome to ARM!!!

Hey Blake!
I think I might have found a pic of you grandfather. Not only does Bill Smith pop up on driver listings,
but I’ve seen his name listed under track officials at times as well. This is from a 1970 Englewood Speedway program thanks to Irwin Fogel. I hope this is him! –Jerry Lee
