Board Track Racing In Daytona Florida
Vintage film of boardtrack racing with motorcycles — teens to 1920’s in Daytona Beach FLA. Having only seen old still photo’s of these types of races it puts a whole other view of the courage these riders had to possess as well as how fast these machines were capable of at that time. I’d venture to say that these racers would call our modern day racing jocks “sissy”. What do you think? Board-tracks were wooden tracks built in the early 1900’s that were abondoned or dismantled after serious weathering caused the death of riders and even spectators.
