Interesting that the Talbot Historical Society database information gives the location of this racetrack as being right next to the Talbot County side of the Choptank River Bridge where the dilapidated ferry boat is now! It also states it was owned by Bowdle Highley. Do you have any memories of that? Photo from the R. Robins Hollyday Collection at the Talbot Historical Society.

Thank You Cathy for sharing these wonderful old images! If anyone is interested in seeing aerial views of this race track, here is a link to another Hollyday (aerial) image and another, more recent aerial that I took a few years ago. These aerial views may help you better understand exactly where the track was located. Notice in Hollyday’s aerial the brand new, yet to be occupied marina with the dredge still digging and filling around the ferryboat. https://aloft.zenfolio.com/spy6-17
