I was an avid spectator at dirt tracks in the notheast for many years. Wanted to build a racer of my own but that is an expensive hobby.

Used to go to Fonda speedway in the 50s when I was a kid. Anyone from N.Y. remember Pete corey, Jeep Herbert, Steve Danish to name a few.
The roar of engines the smell of high octane fuel, The ontrack fist fights,>LOL<

Lebanon Valley speedway is a super fast 1/2 mile high banked dirt track. They come of turn 2 and 3 and do up to 120 mph down the backstraight and the front straight. Wicked good racin.

Leb Valley speedway has about a 5 foot hight steel plate wall backed up with dirt around the outside of the track. Seen more that one racer get caught up in the loose dirt and climb that wall.

Read last weeks results and someone took a wild ride down the front straight.
