Eastern Museum of Motor Racing (EMMR)

The Eastern Museum of Motor Racing (EMMR) is built on a wooded hillside overlooking the historic Latimore Valley Fairgrounds and racetrack. The 40 acre fairgrounds and track are restored to their original beauty creating an atmosphere that makes the EMMR a living museum. Several times a year EMMR holds events where these historic cars can be seen on the track!

The Eastern Museum of Motor Racing is proud to be the home of the Chris Economaki collection, a  noted motorsports journalist, and editor of National Speed Sport News,  The library contains the Central States Racing Association paperwork, the racing columnist Bob Chorpenning’s collection, the collection of noted historian Joe Heisler, while the The Jerry Reigle Research Room contains the EMMR’s vast photograph collection.  There are an estimated 20,000 photographs in the EMMR collection, including the large Jack Gunn collection.  

And with us for a special guided tour is Dirt Track hall-of-famer and former curator for the Museum, Lynn Paxton.
