Lining up the cars roar in a slightly later photo, considering the photos below do not reveal the bleachers, hay bales, or fencing.

Very little is known about the Webster Flats track right now. I have not had a chance to talk to Dennis Bean, Johnny Gammell, or any of the other guys who might know more. From the few photos, it is evident that it was the forerunner of some of the newer tracks like Northeastern Speedway in Lower Waterford. Also, it was very informal, with few safety precautions - much like the Morrisville track.

Spectators take the opportunity between races to run across the track into the pits. So much for crowd control.

A field of cars comes towards
a turn at Webster Flats. I don't know
which turn, but it is probably #1. Note the proximity of the crowd to the racing surface.

The cars roar by in pursuit
of the silver and black car,
which might be the
Bigelow boys' father.

Another heat race, Again, the
silver and black coupe could
be the original #2.

This looks a lot like
the #32 Gammell drove
later, but is it ?

I really think this is the Webster Flats location, from all I have heard.
