The Center is constantly adding new materials to our Library and Archives and making them available to researchers.
The following Archival collections have been inventoried and processed recently. The material is available for researchers to use:
The David Crowther Collection
A collection of racing programs, rules/regulations, club directories and rosters, results sheets and communications with competitors dating from 1961-1982. The rules and regulations are primarily from the Canadian Automobile Sport Club, Ontario Region and include General Competition Rules, Solo Events, Rally and Ice Racing Regulations. Most of the race programs and race materials are from the Trophy Races at Harewood Acres, 1968-1970. Crowther competed in several of these Trophy Races and continued racing into the early 1980s.
The Robert Strebler Collection of Race Programs
A collection of race programs dating from 1971-2015. Venues covered include Belle Isle, Detroit; Michigan International Speedway; Road America; and the Wisconsin State Fair Park Speedway. Races at the Wisconsin State Fair Speedway are particularly well covered, with several programs dating from the early 1970s from the Tony Bettenhausen 200 Mile National Championship Race and the Rex Mays Classic 150 Mile Championship. This collection was a valuable addition to our race program collection.
