Remember watching swamp buggy racing on TV when you were a kid? As seen is this video, Florida swamp buggy racing goes back a lot farther than that. Based in Naples, Florida, swamp buggy racing started in 1943, not long after the swamp buggy inventor Ed Frank created the first swamp buggy. Check out the video below of swamp buggy racing in the 60’s, when it was still a low budget sport.
