Uniontown Speedway
History
Motorsport was extremely dangerous in the days of the board tracks, but the inaugural race at Uniontown on December 2, 1916 was an especially bloody event, even for the standards of the day. Two were killed during practice a few days prior, and five died during the race. The track's future was thwarted after track president Charlie Johnson reportedly ran off to Cuba with the track's proceeds.A second Uniontown Speedway, adjacent to the original site, was active in 1946, as a half-mile dirt track. It held a National Championship-level sprint car race won by Ted Horn.
