TOLEDO SPEEDWAY THROWBACK THURSDAY
TOLEDO SPEEDWAY THROWBACK THURSDAY
The ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards Stock Car Series will contest its 75th event at Toledo Speedway on May 22 of this year. Pictured is Zanesville, OH driver Butch Hartman, one of the top drivers from the 1960’s and 1970’s. Butch campaigned his #75 car at Toledo back in the mid-1960’s and ran various ARCA races. Hartman was a former USAC Stock Car champion as well.
**We need to take the time to thank Jim Hehl and Brian Norton for sharing their great photos from their collections with us! Jim, who grew up in Flat Rock, MI, resides in Florida but still makes a couple trips a year back to the area. Brian, a former Flat Rock Street Stock champion, lives in Lambertville, MI and is a frequent visitor to both tracks during the summer. Brian also helps organize the Annual Racer’s Reunion event (April 2 at Toledo in 2016) and the events at the tracks.
This duo spends countless hours putting together and adding to their collections of Flat Rock and Toledo photos and from other tracks across the Midwest.
