Race Car Driver Ernie Triplett Wins At Legion Ascot Speedway
Ernie Triplett wins the race at the Legion Ascot Speedway Raceway in Los Angeles, California November 23, 1930. Historic Legion Ascot was definitely big and unique to Lincoln Heights and the surrounding areas during the racing era of 1924-1936.
In 1928 the Glendale American Legion Post took over the promotion and brought in the cars and drivers of the American Automobile Association AAA. The AAA was the leading racing organization in the country and controlled all the major speedways including Indianapolis. The soon to be legendary Legion Ascot Speedway was born!
