The war was won; the Depression was over; and Americans were back on the road. From all across the nation; sports car drivers converged on Watkins Glen to race through the gorges; hills; and village streets of western New York. Over the years; the course has evolved from its humble beginnings on streets lined with hay bales to the modern closed track that plays host to NASCAR today. Through vintage photographs; primarily from the International Motor Racing Research Center at Watkins Glen; Watkins Glen Racing chronicles the history of the track with early drivers; like Cameron Argetsinger; Phil Walters; and Dave Garroway; vintage cars; hairpin turns; and death-defying races.
