The following table is based on a almost complete list of entries to the Put-in-Bay road races during the 1950's (it does not include the SCCA sanctioned 1963 race). The circumstances of the Put-in-Bay Road races (not having SCCA points, Limited to cars under 2 liters and unusual race groupings) attracted a great combination of small bore cars.

It also gave many people a chance to give racing a try, so we find a number of first time drivers (including one time only drivers). There where 292 different race drivers listed -- "The Big List" of drivers can be found Here.

The cars consisted of SCCA small bore race cars (with a high number of H mod specials), Small bore sporty road cars and a number of just plain small (micro) cars. There where a total of 120 different Marque / Model of car (and a Morris Minor Truck) that participated in the Put-in-Bay races.

The following table has a list of all the Driver / Cars that raced.....the obvious duplicates (Brothers who shared a car) have been removed, but it is not known how many of the cars changed owners. In total there where 424 Car/Driver combinations that participated in the races.
