Comments: | Many of us had this great view for years at Flemington. What's unusual about this photo is it looks like the initial start of a modified feature from around 1977, in front of a packed house... during the day! It doesn't look like Harry Dee has his coat on so we're thinking it may have been taken during a special Memorial Day Weekend race. Were you there??? |

10/00/05 | Gglenn923 | I don't remember this particular race but it sure shows Flemington at its finest. What a line up of drivers! Nice to see Larry Bowers in the picture. He was always a "little guy" in the modifieds not with the best of equipment. I used to sit in the first turn bleachers near where his wife and family sat. I remember them being so excited one night when he won a heat race. |
03/20/06 | TV Tom | That's what it was all about. |
05/15/06 | Dwight Clock | This might have been the make up of a rained out feature. They were always run first. |
09.21.10 | 3Wide | By the way... This is the photo that inspired the drawing by David Allen Graul that was provided at the 2007 Motorsports show to 100's of fans.... |
11.02.11 | Carrie Gibson | Some of my best childhood memories are of being at Flemington with my grandparents Larry and Marie Bowers. Its nice to see a pic of my grandfather on the track. I wish I could go back to those days but I can always cherish the great memories. |
