A motordrome was erected in the north part of Olentangy Park in 1915. It was 240 feet in circumference and 26 feet high. The main part of the track stood at a steep angle, and the top of the track was perpendicular to the ground.
"Cyclone" Woodland and "Daredevil" Hill performed races and stunts from June 19-20, 1915.[1]
