SPEEDCARS (WA)
*********************************************************************************************************************************
Although Speedcar racing started in Melbourne Australian in 1934, it was not until December the 31st of 1946 that speedcars first appeared at the Claremont Showgrounds.
Rod Waller captures the spirit of WASDA President Peter Duncan in the form of a cartoon at Claremont in 2001
