Comments: We could use your help with this one Vault Visitors... I met a very nice lady at the recent racing memorabilia event held in Glen Gardner, NJ who is trying to find pictures of her father who is pictured above in one of the cars that he drove back in the 1950's.  His name is Art Scott and is pictured above in the #101.  If you can help us out, please email the Vault at 3wide@optonline.net    Thank you very much.

11/22/04 Paul Irving That's Bud Marl in the #03, 1954 and 1956 track champion at Middletown, still called Victory Speedway then.  My father had worked for Bud and took me to Bud's garage in Pine Bush NY.  It was such a thrill for me to be in that garage on Sunday morning with Bud's car still covered with track dirt from the night before.  I was under 10 years old,  Hooked Forever !!!
12/17/05 Bobby Walz The 693 was driven and owned by Jud Swain from Peekskill, NY.    It had a 296 cu. in. flathead in it with 4 carburators on methanol.
05/08/08 Bonnie Collins As per question about the picture in Middletown NY, I can identify the 03 which was Orange and Cream colored if my memory takes me back and was driven by Bud Marl. That is the only one I can obviously recall....
07/05/08 George Stewart I worked on the frame of Bud Marl's 03 during the 50's and the actual colors were yellow and red. Bud liked the red because it was the same as Esso and he was an Esso dealer in Pine Bush.

The red and white coupe in the infield behind the little trailer is the Henry Caputo #11 or #111, out of Hudson Falls, N.Y. The driver here is likely George Baumgartner. This car was a top runner for years at the Fonda Speedway.

Bud Marl was my great uncle. My mothers mother, my grandmother was a Marl. My father tells me that he used to help with Bud Marls car and actually got to turn some laps in Buds car at Orange County Fair Speedway aka Victory Speedway.

That Art Scott was my grandfather that I never got to know because he had a fatal heart attack when I was an infant. Just missed him..
