No Thompson Trophy race in 1929

Though this is a common misconception, the Thompson Trophy races didn't start until 1930. The 1929 race was a 50-lap event for "the Thompson Cup" and a modest cash prize. It wasn't until 1930 that the famous Thompson Trophy (currently in the NASM) was created and awarded for a 100-lap race.173.62.12.218 (talk) 15:21, 17 September 2014 (UTC) <ref>"Thompson Trophy Races," by Rodger Huntington<ref>[reply]
