Connecting Highway
All of the recent bitching and moaning is starting to get stale.
Just to lighten things up I'd like to hear from those who frequented the following Friday,Saturday night circuit in NYC. Connecting Highway Laural Hill Blvd. Francis Lewis Blvd Review Ave-Van Iderstien fat rendering co. stunk lik hell The Conduit (150th St) Columbia St-Red Hook Bklyn 1st Ave.-Bush Terminal Fountain Ave-not one of my favorites Mitchells-Roller skate waitresses This was in the late 60's early 70's.I got my first ticket one night at Connecting.Had a new 1969 VW bug and cops caught me racing another VW(he had Calif. plates,didn't pay ticket).The cop gave us speeding ticket (55 in a 50) instead of "Speed contest". Was there one night when they ran a front engine dragster on highway. Anyoneremember John D'Andrea?Had a 1970 Gremlin with a 390 AMC motor,won alot there. How abouttheFish Kid or George he Greek? Shaffroff had more than afew motors running around then. The heavy duty races went off after 2AM down at the Conduit.Bklyn Heavy etc.Alotof $ changed hands Just a few memories from misspent youth.The rest is blank. Ed F. NHRA #15 IHRA #1945 T/SA |
