The annual Tracey’s Speedway reunion was back and better than ever, which sparked calls among vintage car, bike and hot rod enthusiats.
Hosted by the Victorian Classic and Vintage Speedway Club and Lions Club of Sunshine the event will be held at the famous Tracey’s Speedway, on Raleigh Road, Maribyrnong.
Although the speedway closed in 1963, the memories still remain for many with a deep passion for vintage speedcars.
The Vintage Speedcar Association was formed in 1987, and have been running this event for three decades, with all the money raised by the gold coin entry to be donated to the Royal Children’s Hospital.
“It was instigated by the late Fred Tracey, who used to be the owner of Tracey’s speedway,” event organiser Malcolm Berg said.
Tracey, an iconic figure in the history of the Maribyrnong Speedway, was inducted into the Australian Speedway Hall of Fame in 2011.
The event will be took place earlier this month on April 3 from 10 am to 4pm.
