An outgrowth of the wheeled sports in the United States, stock car racing first appeared in Canada shortly after World War II. Graduating from the hazy one-a-week meet on rural pasture tracks, stock car racing has now moved (in many cases) into the cities and towns on a strictly scheduled, professional basis. The fans, guaranteed many of the thrills and spills of big-time racing, have taken the battered, careening chariots to their hearts ind pocketbooks.

Mobile-Ontario Sanctioned by 'eda: the Canadian Stock - =-- Car Racing Club, ~ the rules and regu- lations of the new sport are strictly " enforced. But before covering the "Do's and Dont's" let's take a look at the expansion of the stock car game in Ontario. It's estimated that nearly 600 drivers compete in races every week in and around such towns and cities as Belleville, Hamiltgn, Brant- ford, London, Windsor, Guelph, Chatham, Oshawa, Fort Erie and Toronto. According to the capacity of the available parks as many as 6,000 spectators crowd in to watch their favourite drivers perform and an over-all weekly attendance figure for stock car racing in the Province should hover around 60 to 70 thousand fans. For some unknown reason at least 50 per cent of the fans are women which should prove something or other about the gentler sex, for, as far as we know, women racing drivers are almost unknown in the sport except possibly around Brantford, Ontario. ys o> Stock-Rules Contrary to-a general belief, strict rules govern the racing cars 'ou see roaring around the tracks, he Canadian Stock Car Racing Club has issued a complete brochure governing safety with respect to the vehicles themselves. For instance, "all cars must be an original hard tap with no roadsters or convertibles aJlowed. All cars must have fenders but no sharp edges allowed. Head- lights must be removed and bumpers must not be interlocking. Mufflers must be left on or cars sufficiently quiet to meet track approval. Wind- shields must be left in and be of safety glass type. All other windows must be rolled down or removed. "All car doors must be welded, bolted or strapped shut. Quick- Specially prepared by a prominent Canadian Sports Authority for release safety belt compulsory, bolted to frame at both ends. All drivers must wear approved racing helmets. Rearview mirrors recom- mended. Inside steel bracing com- pulsory. Hub caps must be removed. Racing numbers shall be one on each side and one on rear. The number, 13 shall not be used, this to include outside competitors." or us, that last admonition would be quite unnecessary! 2 eo Most Dangerous Job Although, in ac- Y) tion, the stock cars average anywhere from 50 to 60 mph., around the tracks the low score on " serious accidents is a complimentary reflection on the governing body controlling the sport. And likely the most dangerous job is that of official starter. We questioned Starter Ross Kennedy of the Oakwood Stock Car Racing Club (Toronto) and found that the closest Kennedy had come to disaster was losing the seat of his pants. But, nevertheless, the starter has to be a nimble operator handling his flags and controlling the actual race. Next time you attend the races check the masterful manipulation of flags: Green--for start; Orange--caution, do not pass; Red--serious accident; Black--dis- qualification; Crossed flags--half- way mark; White--one lap to go and, Checkered--winner. To catch up on this stock car racing business you have your choice of the locations mentioned with, no doubt, many others on the way. At the moment, nearly half of the operating tracks are using arc-lights and specializing in night racing, so you have your choice of daytime or evening attendance. We repeat, stock car racing is good, clean, dangerous fun. How- ever, we'll still take that back seat high in the stands, please!
