The Western Suburbs Motor Cycle Club approached Sydney Smith for a loan of his paddocks, known as Belmore Park, situated to the west of Smith's home, Thornton Hall. In 1925, Smith and his family floated Penrith Speedway as a public company, with Smith, the chairman of directors. Six thousand people attended its first meet. The last meeting of the Speedway was held in May 1941.
