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.

Images from Barney Oldfield's racing career. Many of these are items collected from photocopies of newspapers preserved on microfilm. Many of the original photos have been lost to the ages, so some of these images rescued in this manner may be all that remains. While the quality is inferior by today's standards, they still provide interesting information about Oldfield and the events he participated in.
