The EHT Speedway was located on Washington Avenue, Egg Harbor Township, but it was called the Atlantic City Speedway or the Pleasantville Speedway because back then EHT did not have its own identity. We were always considered part of someone else's town. Usually we were called the town name that was closest to what ever the attraction was, hence the name Pleasantville Speedway. |
All EHT Drivers (where we more need information)
It is out goal to have a web page full of personal information about each EHT driver that raced at the speedway. If you know or knew the driver or want to share an interesting story about them, please contact me at www.ehthistory.org.
It is our intention to only add information that is factual and positive. Email: John Dilks, click here. |
