A Visit with Selma Hamrick

Stock Car Racing Collection curator Suzanne Wise recently visited Selma Hamrick, widow of legendary racing broadcaster and publisher Hal Hamrick, who died in 2008. Selma donated audio tapes of several races featuring Hal as a race announcer, as well as some issues of FasTrack, the racing newspaper he published for many years, to the Collection. Suzanne reports that Selma is very active and is on the go a lot visiting children and grandchildren. She also makes an incredibly delicious pound cake!
