PERTH WACA GROUND
In the late 1920's and early 30's motorcycle speedway was run on the clay athletic track round the outside of the oval.
This track was to claim the life of the great Sig Schlam in 1930 when he crashed into the outer fence.
The earliest known car race in WA was believed to be held at the WACA in 1902 when two de Dion Tricars held a Match Race.
