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 appeared in The Automobile on May 18, 1905. Reference the Horseless Age article in this section because both of these pieces of content are a huge find for American auto racing historians. They are evidence that the first auto racing national championship awarded through a points system occurred in 1905.
