Philip Siebert to open Frederick Model Raceway Center
Twenty years ago Philip Siebert planned to open the Frederick Model Raceway and Hobby Center at the Patrick Street Center. The facility would feature 1-24th, 1-25th and 1-32nd scale models racing on $20,000 of track, including two eight-lane slots, 180 and 100 feet in length. Partners were Glenmore Rice and Fred W. Young. The county eliminated personal property tax, hailed as the first tax cut in ten years by Commissioner President A Irvin Renn. Emmitsburg safety upgrades along the bypass included flashing lights, overhead interaction lighting, 48 mph speed limits, new road markings, rumble strips, and large arrows to curb accidents.
