Not much is known about this Dirt Track effort in Scotland, during June of
1932.
I have started this page after receiving (from Speedway Researcher Jim Henry) the following Newspaper
advert from a local Newspaper (18th June 1932)
Motor cycle dirt track racing (or
speedway) was staged at the stadium on 18 June 1932 as part of the
annual Dunoon and Cowal Agricultural Show. A demonstration event
had been staged in May 1932.

The advert was "run" by The Dunoon and Cowal Agricultural
Society where the speedway (Dirt Track racing) was just one of a
number of their attractions. Perhaps your grandparents were there? Or
maybe you have a programme etc of the event if so please email me

Jim Henry has sent another Newspaper article as follows: -
A great example of newspaper reports
from 80 years ago and documentary evidence of speedway type racing
(Dirt Track) at Dunoon in 1932
If you can scan any pictures, programmes or badges
