Completed and being used by tri-rail

Oh the memories. Odell & Johnda were my grandparents. Bobby AKA Tuna is my father.

My name Is Raymond. I use to race at Hialeah Speedway in the # 67 Ford Fair lane from 1977 to 1980; Sad it is gone

I was 8 years old when my family moved to our new house in Hialeah. The year was 1966. As a kid I looked forward to going to the races at Hialeah Speedway. When I got punished and could not go I would still open my bedroom window and could hear the roar from the race track. Boy do I miss those days and this track! Joe P

There is a good philatelic society here in Hialeah run by a wonderful Brulé Indian that has wonderful tête-bêches.

Hialeah is a very good city in Florida.

spent a lot of time there sorry to see it go live in Atlanta now grew up in Miami Springs

I'm searching for a driver during that time #15 / #46 Don Christy or Cristy. If you or your family may have more information that may lead me to him, it would be greatly appreciated. I don't have much to go on other than he raced, especially at Hialeah late models in the 1970's. Florida racing memories has photos of him posted but has no contact information for him. He lived in Miami in the 1970's at some point later ended up in NC or SC. When he was racing at Hialeah one time another driver got loose and slid down, Don T boned him and the driver died. I have the article if that helps I can get more details. Thank you, Missy richardnmissy@bellsouth.net

my aunt and uncle owned # 92 in the super late models back in the 1970's all the way to 1991 .. odell and johnda bilton..black car with orange numbers.. the driver was either Donnie rutherford,jimmy bilton or Elliot Maddox... 237 was I think larry rogero and 57 was I think bobby brack.. im taking it way back... back when to get in the pitts was 16 and over and they pin a piece of cloth to your shirt....lol

This is now a neighborhood Walmart (As in, not a Supercenter, but one that just sells groceries)

Hialeah Speedway,will always be in our minds,#92 #84 #57 #112 #237,Super Late Models best!

It sucks that they took the track away. Some of my best childhood memories are from the track with my dad and brother

it sucks that they removed it. this is why people take the racing to the streets. no tracks left in the city!

if this is the Pizza Hut on 12th avenue close to 49th street, it's GONE!

I was born here in 1966 =)
