Would that be the Westhampton Pines 55+ community drag strip? :rolleyes:

To be honest I have always loved going to the mom/pop dragstrips and the fact I did not have to cross a bridge to get there.

First year I went to LID was when Gary took over. I would love to have that back, 95/96, I had some good times there.

Unfortunately, I was only 5 back then. Dad use to race but stopped before I came along. My sister (8 years older) got to go, now I'm getting my dad back into it.

Thats where my racing career started when I was 16. Every one used to complain that the track was shitty but now most would give their left leg to have it back. I had so much fun at that track.
