Yeah the guy running that show is named Howard Kroplick. He's a member of LIMA and the sites historian. He has his own site also that you can get to by typing in vanderbuilt races.

Andy,

It is amazing the amount of spectators.

Parts of the original motor parkway still exist in Queens by you.

I can't seem to find the May 16th road course details?
Can you post it?

"The six Vanderbilt Cup Races held on Long Island from 1904 to 1910 were the greatest sporting events of their day. These exciting and dangerous races were the first international automobile road races held in the United States, drawing huge crowds from 25,000 to over 250,000 spectators. The races had a far-reaching impact on the development of American automobiles and parkways and are a testament to the early racing spirit and drama."

Can you add the events to the LIDR Calendar?
