For me it is Fremont and Half Moon Bay, where I raced in the late 60's and early 70's.

YES to Westhampton ! Was a fun place to race in 70s . N.Y. Nat was geared more to making money with paid in shows , while Hamptons was a racer's strip . Gov't surplus tower , sand pits area and the "dip" at the top end . Those were the days ! Also remember the rubbish heap 1/8mile behind oval G-stands at Islip . Though did see Big Daddy run 149mph there in '65 , MASSIVE GONADS !

I would run at Edmonton International Speedway Park. I grew up there and It closed in 1983. The Friday night bracket races were awesome, the stands and pits were packed to capacity at all times. Some great childhood memories there.
