Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:About Шаблон:Infobox racing driver

Guy Robinson is a retired driver of modified stock cars. Equally adept on both dirt and asphalt surfaces, he was victorious at venues on either side of the St. Lawrence River, despite being limited primarily to weekend racing by his full-time job.[1]

Racing career

Guy Robinson got his big break in 1965 when owner/driver John Barker Sr. offered him a chance to get behind the wheel of his flathead powered number 122 at the Watertown Speedway NY. The combination garnered several wins over the following two years. Barker built a new car for the 1967 season, with the new number '13' which became Robinson's hallmark throughout much of his career.[2]

Robinson went on to compete successfully at Brewerton Speedway NY, Brockville Speedway ON, Can-Am Speedway NY, Capital City Speedway ON, Evans Mills Speedway NY, Fort Covington Speedway NY, Kingston Speedway ON and Utica-Rome Speedway NY.[3][4][5][6]

Guy Robinson claimed the Watertown Speedway point championships in 1971 and 1973, and he was inducted into the Northeast Dirt Modified Hall of Fame in 1993.[6]
