  • Another Wisconsin program just north of Illinois border, near Kenosha & Chicago.Track open 1953-1956.This is the only thing I have seen with motorcycle racing at this track. drew some big names. I'm amazed how some would travel to these tracks back in the day. Brad Andreas from San Diego, Joe Leonard San Jose etc.

    • Interesting choice of cover photo on the Wilmot program for a motorcycle road race. After the Milwaukee Mile was paved in 1954 there was motorcycle road racing held at state fair park 1956-1958, named the Badger Motorcycle Road Race Classsic. That may have been a one and done road race at Wilmot.

      Here are the 1954 results.
