Board Track Racer

Board Tack Racing was a very popular sport in the early 1900's. Board tracks built with 2x4 planks sprang up all across the country, mostly 1/3rd of a mile, with banked turns up to 45º! High speeds and high G's were the norm. Companies like Cyclone, Excelsior, Flying Merkle, Harley-Davidson, Henderson, Indian and a host of others competed in this high stakes game of raw horsepower and raw nerves. Death was a constant companion for both riders and spectators which helped lead to the end of Board Track Racing, but for a while it was the rage.
