Bowman Grey Stadium

[Tim]

To compare what they have .......

Imagine the Citrus Bowl having a race track around the football field. That is what it is. It lies in the heart of Winston Salem which is no small town. It''s the home of Wake Forest College. I mean downtown! Every track we had like this has been closed down due to local ordinance. It is unbelievable and totally respectable that it remains open.

You are so correct,, I was amazed when driving to Bowman and saw it was in the middle of everything... crowd was amazing....(and it was a regular Sat night race - nothing special)....place was packed - those people love racing and the place was rocking with excitment.... not alot of passing....but I sure enjoyed it (several times)....VERY TIGHT TRACK..I'd go back in a second if I am ever in the area again...they only race there several months (when they don't have football going on).

That was one of the tracks that Dumont Smith ran reguulally prior to his move to Fla.

Bowman Grey is an awesome place to go see racing... It necessarily "Monster" names that bring people, it is the place and the oomph that the drivers and the promoters put into the show that makes it so awesome...

I have been to many races there when I consulted several businesses and always found it awesome...
