1961, 62, 63, 54 and 65 I spent virtually every Friday and Saturday night at the races. Some members of our church lives on the Hialeah Speedway property and used to let me in for free on Saturday nights.

The Disabled American Veterans Chapter 43 used to run the parking at the Hialeah Speedway on Friday or Saturday nights during the late 50s and early 60s. Many a time I went with my dad to work the "Bucket" for donations. IIRC, the DAV built a nice chapter building right on the way into the Speedway sometime in the 60s.
My dad swore I learned how to drive by watching the races. LOL
