Who remembers Tuesday night at Nathan's on Long Beach Rd? Mostly a bike night, but cars would show up now and then.

1965...VSC was class A...Elmont, VSN, Cary, New Hyde Park & Floral Park HS were class B. Sewanaka HS was the central HS until 1957 when theses schools were created to handle the baby boom generation. Floral Park was the smallest school. 1$ bought you 4 hamburgers, fries & shake at McDonald’s.

Oh yes, the Big Bow Wow. The fire department used to hose down Cross Bay Blvd. to dampen the racing. Is S&K Speed Shop still in business. I used to go to the shop on Coney Island Ave. Who could forget, Sunday, Sunday, Sunday at National Speedway. How about Vitar Engineering and Nunzio's in Brooklyn. Jerry

S&K is still there all the small shops closed except RT 109 in West Babylon. They have taken over the entire building.

Thank you, guys for making this thread more enjoyable than if I did actually hook up with George.

But ... are you out there, George?
