If I remember right, "Speedweek" was also used for sports car racing in the
Bahamas back in the Fifties.

Tom:
Don't know when SCTA began calling the August/ Bonneville event
"Speedweek"-- but it seems like folks have been calling the winter/Daytona
event "Speedweek" since at least '65, when a bunch of my buds went down for
"Speedweek" from Ft. Benning (GA). Of course, memory could be playing
tricks on me, I guess.

Those roundy round boys have done it again! I thought the only REAL
Speedweek was on the Bonneville Salt Flats in Mid August every year. Oh
