Feeler out for NY Natl. Speedway Reunion
I spoke to Walter Frey about having a NY Natl/Hampton/Islip/Connecting Highway Reunion for sometime (prefably Spring or Fall) of 2013.Just kicked around the idea about having it at Englishtown on the 1/8 mile track.That way the present management isn't bothered by a bunch of old crabby men cutting into their regular program.It's getting late,there aren't that many of us around.
How about some feed back.Walter said he would see if he could get Ed Eaton to grace our company.That would be something.

Why not have the reunion on Sunrise Hgwy by Deerfield Ave, just tell the cops it's OK! I'm sure that they still race there.

Re: Feeler out for NY Natl. Speedway Reunion
Interesting proposition. I would be up for it. Might as well throw in Suffolk raceway too.

I have to light a fire under Walters butt to get the word out.

Next thing to do is start a Face Book page and a web site! Ed, you are the first to be deputized but we'll need some more folks to help. I have a ton of ideas but please don't be afraid to put your 2 cents in. Let's get this thing rolling! WF P.S. My first thought is to make this a Long Island Hot Rod Reunion. Islip and Westhampton both have great history and memories! |

Re: Feeler out for NY Natl. Speedway Reunion
This sounds like a great idea! If I can be of any help let me know. I spent many a wild-weekend at NYNS, from it's opening until I moved south in the early 1970's. I just wish I still had my race cars from back then!
