What were those walls made with? Looks like terra cotta pipe?

I think they were called Marston Mats. They were used in WWII for temporary runways and landing strips.

That looks like Gene Dewitt with the glasses in the 3rd picture. He was the sponsor of Richie Evans' cars. When Gene died years ago his coffin had #61 on it. Gene's grandson Byron Dewitt races in the Street Stock class at Genesee Speedway.

Does "Comments Welcome" apply to all the photos, or just the last one?  I ask because I became speechless when I scrolled down to the last photo.  Scott Ely
