Facts About the Omaha Speedway
The Omaha Speedway is one mile and one-quarter in circumference. It is
built entirely of timber (3,000,000 feet being used) on concrete base, the sur
f ace being 2x4's laid on edge. The stretches are pitched at an angle of 10 de
grees, and the turns at an anlo of 42 degrees. This enables the drivers to
keep their throttles wide open all the time instead of shutting down at the
urns, as on other tracks and will greatly increase the speed average. Dust,
mud and dirt are entirely eliminated, and weather conditions preceeding the
race cannot interfere or cause postponement. The spectators have a much
better view on this track than on the two-mile tracks, as each driver can be
plainly seen and followed at all times.
