N.C.R. Speedway - 1924

Thanks to First Super Speedway follower Major Simms we can share this "mystery" photo. This is a poster to promote a race held in 1924 at N.C.R. Speedway. Major is inquiring about more information:

Where was this Speedway?
When in the year was the race held?
Who won? Other results?
How many years was the track in operation?

If anyone knows more, please contact me and we can help Major - plus get the story published here.

This article, which originally appeared in the 2007 Allstate 400 program, catches up with the legendary speed shop of Holman and Moody. Its founders, John Holman and Ralph Moody, were a force to be reckoned with in the 1960's working with such marquee names as Fred Lorenzen, Curtis Turner, David Pearson, Johnny Beauchamp, Fireball Roberts, Dan Gurney, Mario Andretti and even Formula One all-time great, Jimmy Clark. Currently headed up by John's son Lee Holman, the business focuses on restoring 1960's vintage Fords for clubs and vintage car races.
