Show Notes
NASCAR was born at the Thompson Speedway, during an agreement struck in the back corner of the cafeteria. Thompson itself set many firsts, including being the first track to be asphalt paved and the first to have separate, looped racetrack that did not use public roads. It still hosts races today.
