We are very proud
to present the History of Gulick Motorsports, Inc.
"Through the Years."
My,
How We've Grown.
In the late 1950's Buzz Gulick starts what would be 3 Generations of
Gulick Racers. Here, Buzz is pictured in 1960 in Victory Lane at
Penn Can Speedway.
In 1968, Buzz pilots his Ford into Victory Lane again at Penn Can.
Buzz would go on to compete through the 1970's before retiring from active
driving. Little did he know what would come in the future. He
is our "True Hero" and Leader.
