The Playland Speedway Drivers.
Alphabetically, I hope!!
The Burdicks.
Bud and Bob Burdick
Car #2
Thanks to Bobby parker, I had the pleasure of meeting Bud Burdick at a local club in Omaha. I tried to keep up with Bud for a while drinking beer, but realized I couldn't. He is truly a treasure. He has so many racing stories to share and very clear memories of the good old days. Bud and his nephew Bob were incredibly talented drivers. Bud's brother Roy was a talented car builder. They took their show to a national audience when they raced in NASCAR.
Bud won Playland track championships in 1953, 55, 58, 59 and 61. That takes some driving skill!!
