As told by Danny Wheeler

I used to attend races when I was a teenager At Whynot Raceway in Whynot Miss located on the Ms/Al state line near Meridian.It was a great dirt track and is still there but not in use. I believe Clyde Rutledge owned the track at that time but was later sold to Babbs Davis of Meridian. Some of the drivers I remember Racing there were- Travis Grant, Tommy Noblin, Johnny Barr, Ted Ballard, Jerry Inmon, Billy Hassele, Ronnie Dedwylder, Mike Johnson, Mike Boland and many other greats. Thought this might be of some help for your track history. Thanks !!
