How do I get the left frame to stay locked at a certain width. Currently
when the page loads the main frame goes to the right with a slider instead
of the other way around.

Why the Hell have you used frames on that anyway?

This is the mark-up for you top frame ...
<frame name="banner" scrolling="no" noresize target="contents"
src="top.htm">

It includes the words scrolling="no"

This is the mark-up for you contents frame ...
<frame name="contents" target="main" src="left.htm">

I doesn't include the words scrolling ="no"
so that frame can be resized by the user.

If you want to lock a frame add that markup, but it's not advisable, as
people who like to enlarge the text may not be able to read your
'contents'.

By the way that background to the 'Speedway' website
http://www.ukiahspeedway.com/speedway/index.shtml is awful, distracting,
and makes reading the text difficult. Just get rid of the background or
tone it down a lot so it makes the reading easier.

You wouldn't ask if you had ever ceen to Lake County, CA. Up there they
still think 8 track is the latest thing in audio.

What a total crap page is that, half of it doesn't even make sense and the
other half is outdated.
Frames do have their uses. You have only one
menu, otherwise you will end up with a totally Shpxrq-Hc navigation.
If your browser doesn't support frames it is really time for you to update your
browser, even the simplest text-browsers can handle frames.
