It is time for the annual race.
https://www.estadrags.com Just north of Syracuse off I-81. This is one of those tracks that could use our help. Their spectator attendance is higher than normal for this event which helps a track with declining car counts. $1000 to win $100 entry, $20 crew 1/8th mile No weight or fuel checks No heads up 7/30/23, gates open at 8am, time trials start at 9am tentative eliminations 11-12 I do not represent the track. This information does come from a representative of the track. Calling out Ward, Hertline, Cira, Jewel, Buisman and all other Buffalo, Rochester and Syracuse Stock and SuperStock racers.

I can remember a few names that were always at this race, Spencer speedway, Empire and Lancaster. Our weekends were great for racing and family time in upper New York. Wally Clark and another name that escapes me had twin Camaros, Peter Fedon and his A/SA corvette, Ritter and Weber's SS/IA Duster. There were locals like Jim Marshall and Ed Longhany in stock. Larry Zugehoer and his U/SA plymouth wagon. Charlie Hopson always had a mopar. LeBrun brothers use to have one of their combo races here also. Lots of memories. Great Modified show of cars as well. Good times.

Yes it would be great to see all our Canadian friends that came to this prior to COVID, Mark Lawton, Wayne Truesdell and maybe even our current world champion the D'Agnolo! Oh and all the PA racers to!

So with Storms expected for Tomorrow(Saturday), what is the plan for Sunday? That place will still be soggy from Tuesday's and Thursday's downpours. Wanna go and take my grandson.
God Bless all. Walt |

Sorry for the late notice. Hacksaw you are correct this race has been rescheduled for this Sunday August 13th at ESTA Safety Park Dragstrip in Cicero NY. I just confirmed this with a track representative. It is not scheduled for tomorrow Saturday August 12th. There was a weak showing last year. Hopefully more can come this year. Spectator attendance typically increases for this event. Come support the track. Weather looks promising.
PS not sure if I am coming due to family illness. Ray
