Five Flags Speedway


Loss of an Icon

Longtime 5 Flags Speedway track electrician Sport Mercer has passed away. Sport’s involvement with 5 Flags goes back to the early days when he was an important member of the Tom Dawson team which helped build 5 Flags and the Snowball Derby into what it is today. Sport’s son Eddie is a past Snowball Derby Champion and son Stevie has won many events here as well. The entire racing community will miss Sport’s ever smiling face, and the 5 Flags Family wishes to extend it’s condolences to his wife Carol, daughters Wanda and Tina, and sons Eddie and Stevie.
