Ok just for fun....
(Id started this as another thread, but kinda decided we didn't need 2 on the front page about trophies, so I'll repost here.
This is in honor of a comment in the other one about trophies that mentions the Martinsville tradition of awarding a Grandfather clock to the winner.
Lots of big league tracks have unique trophies. At Indy, I believe you get a plaque with an original brick on it. Martinsville has the Clock. Texas has the boots and Hat (or is it the rifle? I forget)
Anyway, just for fun, if Delaware was to have its own distinctive trophy that was somewhat along those lines, what would it be?
A piece of the old track surface,... which would imply!!!!!.......
Or
How about, a Bronzed Natchos Supreme, without the fake cheese. (settle down, settle down)
Seriously,
I believe it is the oldest continualy operating 1/2 mile track in Canada.
It would be neat to receive a small bronze replica of the track. I guess you could commission a Beal or Fanshawe art student to do the design for casting.
Not only incorporate the track and infeld area, but included the hill and grandstand area that the track is famous for. Add in the concourse , bleachers and tower with Delaware Speedway accross the top.
Now, that would be neat and unique
