Eastern Museum of Motor Racing A sardine can of memories.

Driven inland by the projected crowds at Sailabraton  I spent a most amazing 3 hours at the Eastern Museum of Motor Racing today. Located Just  south of Dillsburg PA off or RT 15 this hidden  treasure chest of motor racing artifacts that is truly a wonder to behold.   

Eastern Museum of Motor Racing     Treasure Chest of Memories

As a life long fan of, any and all, motor sports, for me the contents unleashed a flood of fond memories.  But what made the visit amazing wasn't the fact that I have seen two of the cars race in their day, or the supporting contents that i found highlighted reference to all my favorite drivers from Reading, Nazareth, Langhorne, Dorney Park. But that every one in the museum, visitors, or  volunteers could, and would, talk racing.  

 

Eastern Museum of Motor Racing  #5

Like the # 5 of Bobby Gearhart I've seen race at Reading .

Eastern Museum of Motor Racing     Child Hood Memories.

Or this veteran example of a midget, I believe to have seen race at Dorney Park a as kid.
