the-speedway: It was an American phenomenon, a sport that evolved from the beaches of Daytona and the dusty back roads of the South, and in 1960 it captured the imagination of a Pinellas County dairy farmer named Leo Musgrave.
Musgrave came up with the idea of converting part of his 250-acre farm into a quarter-mile track that would attract a new breed of racing enthusiast: the stock car driver. Forty-three seasons later (and 20 years after Musgrave's death) they're still racing out at Sunshine Speedway, but it's not clear for how long.
