Islip was cool little track that challenged many drivers in its history.

What memory or memories of the track stick out in your mind?

I have a few, that red and white striped wall, the pizza stand which had guard rail on the front of it because it was on the drag strip behind the main grandstand, the site of all those mods and figure 8's coming out of the pit gate to line up for a race, Lawrence wreckers with all those wreckers they brought each week to drag the figure 8's off the track when a race was over.

Other memories, all those ARDC midgets getting pushed off to start a race, the loudness of the mods when they started a feature.


I sure miss that place in its prime, god I hate Silverlake cookies!!!

Here's a triva question: What was Islip before it was a track???
