* Tri-Cities Dragstrip...............(Endicott-Binghamton)
* Lebanon Valley Dragstrip
* Dover Drag Strip

* Milton Speedway....................(Vermont)
* Pittsfield Airport/Dragstrip.... (Western Massachussets)
* Orange Dragstrip....................(North Central Massachussets)

* Connecticut Dragstrip

Throw in the fact that,

* South Glens Falls ran on both - Saturday Nights and Sunday
* Fonda Speedway ran on - Wednesday Nights
* Utica-Rome ran on - Saturday Nights
* Tri-Cities ran on - Saturday Nights
* Lebanon Valley ran on both - Friday Nights and Sunday for awhile.

This didn't even take into account the other Upstate and Western New York Drag Strips.

* Montgomery Airport/Dragstrip - which opened on July 27, 1958 - closed in 1963.

* Pittsfield Airport/Dragstrip - which opened in the Mid-1950's was down to 'Once-a-Month' Sunday Drag Races by 1960.
Any info on a track in North Hudson, NY?
