Elton "Wild Man" Hildreth won the Trenton 100 on August 21,
1960. The story goes as only Elton could tell it," I only went to Trenton that day to
take a guy out who I felt needed a payback for a racing incident that happened at another
speedway previously. I didn't have the right tires or nothing. The car ran so good I ended
up winning the race. The guy I wanted to get dropped out!" Elton was the all time
winner at his home track Vineland Speedway with 32 feature events. For you old timers the
driver he wanted to bump was a new England driver with the initials of R.C. Thanks, Russ

I watched the J-2 and Melvin 'Red' Foote
many times at Waterford Speedbowl as well as his brother Russ Foote. Not
sure what the J-2 stood for. I thought it might be the type of engine he was
running but not sure. |

Think the New England driver Elton
was looking out for was Rene Charland |

I don't know... it might have been.
I do know that one time Elton felt that Rene ran into the side of him under
yellow somewhere up in New England, and the way the story goes, the next
time he came down to run at Langhone, Rene never got the car off the
trailer... It was many years ago, and I'm not sure if that's really
how it played out, but that's the story that I was told! |
