I've had these decals for years. I dig some digging on the web to find some history, but couldn't find anything in depth. Anybody out there know anything about Iron Bowl Speedway or Fairgrounds Speedway?

Is this what's become Birmingham Intl. Raceway? ~ Pete

Yep, I found those 2 and some other possibilities. I figured with all the knowledge floating around here, somebody might know something. I have found more references to Fairgounds Speedway related to Birmingham. The lists were mainly of race winners, dates, make and model car, etc. Some interesting facts and the name Richard Petty kept popping up. Anybody heard of him http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hmmm.gif ? Anyway, if anybody has any info on either track or this club, post it when you get a chance.
Thanks.
