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 !
