🏁 Welcome to Speedway Legacy, a deep dive into the rich and forgotten history of speedway racing, with a special focus on the iconic Ekka Racecourse. Join me, Jocelyn Dare, as I uncover the thrilling stories of legendary racers, their families, and the golden era of speedway—all while fighting to bring its legacy back to life. This channel isn’t just about history; it’s a personal journey to honor my father’s racing past and preserve the untold stories of the sport. Then, at the Ekka Exhibition, I saw there was no recognition of nearly 100 years on the grounds or website. In that moment, I realized—there was no honor, no recognition for the riders who gave their lives for this sport. As I connected with real people who brought back so many memories, I knew I had to publish my book, Big Bad Johno. Speedway at the Ekka wasn’t just a motorsport—it was a spectacle, a way of life, and a defining part of Australian culture. Today, the newer generation has no idea it ever existed.
