TAKING A LOOK AT "KING" CAMBINO

Johnny Cambino received his title "King" Cambino because of his exploits at the West Haven Speedway in the 50's and 60's, where he won several Championships and many wins.  When West Haven closed in 1967 Johnny, always loyal to Harvey Tattersall and United, became a regular at Riverside Park Speedway in 1968 winning the Riverside 500 teamed with Jack Lecuyer.  John left Riverside when it went NASCAR after the 1975 season and followed United to the Waterford Speedbowl.  John came out of retirement in the early 90's while in his 60's to compete in the Strictly Stocks at the Speedbowl winning several features before his final retirement in the late 90's.
