Thanks to all the positive feedback and support the Legend cars will be back on the schedule in 2008. Look for a press release from the track and the upcoming schedule for the exact dates. Thanks again to everyone involved that helped this happen.

Awesome love thoes lil cars! They will bring back some memories!

I think that is a great idea to bring them back!!! The only thing that was wrong with them last time was the time it took to remove cars from the track after wrecks. They had the roof clamp which is good, but no tow truck with a extendable boom. Some tracks use forklifts to move cars, but I really enjoy the Legends and hope for a great '08 season!!!!

I hope this all falls into place. I am really interested in this division. If there is anyone who could help me locating a car for sale, or a roller....a chassis anything is a start it would be a great help.
Thank You

Brian, there several for sale in NC. If I can help you find one let me know.

[racertoms27]

Finding a car available locally won't be easy. www.Racingjunk.com has quite a few and I'm sure more will pop up once the schedule is officially announced. If you're not already aware of it, Yahoo Groups has a discussion board on Legend Cars with mostly good people and information. You also can check www.Legendsnation.com and www.600racing.com for some general information about the division.

Great news for all us legend drivers. We all owe it to Mike and Jim at the track for making this happen jfc25 racing will be back in full force.

Hey $20.00 a ticket sounds great! I think its been done before. Oh yeah, I won that raffle.

Just saw this on the Riverhead Raceway Website in Bobby's "Eye on Riverhead": On a much happier note, let us all welcome back the Legend Race Cars to Riverhead Raceway for 2008! In a late week phone conversation with Barbara and Jim Cromarty, they told me that the popular class would indeed return to the Riverhead slate in 2008 for some shows! How many and when, well, we’ll all find out when the 2008 schedule is released, which should be for next Saturday night’s awards dinner, so we won’t have to wait too long.

Just want to thank Bob for putting this word out in a more official manner.

I just received email from Bob Finan containing similar information. So, yes, straight from the track, it has been confirmed that the Legends will be on the schedule in 2008. When the official schedule is released at the banquet (if that indeed happens as it has in the past few years), I guess we'll all get more details. Perhaps you will see seven divisions running in the first few weeks of the season, including the Legend cars!

[unowho243]

Awesome. I think that instead of making a division take off, why not start the night a little earlier to fit all the divisions in? Pack the pits and stands with as many race cars and racers families every week as possible! Less Magic shows and more divisions.

I've talked to many drivers in different divisions and they all would love to race more than they can, so start the show earlier and add one more division a night!

How about just moving the show along and start at the same time.

If you have kids there the night is already too long some nights.

Oh welcome back to the Legends.
Also try racingjunk.com they have about 70 legends for sale.

This is great news. Another division added... well I would like to break some other big news... Riverhead is adding a few more divisions.... The popular VW Bug division will return to Riverhead next year, along with mighty Mini-Modifieds and the Bug Cars..... starting time will be moved forward to 2pm. Hope to see everyone at the track....

Seriously, great idea to bring the Legends cars back, but also, this should be the time to combine the Chargers and Late Models into one class (with rules somewhere in the middle.)

We have had another thread awhile back and it was said that starting later got more people in the stands. Remember people talking about work, their kids and family stuff on Saturday's Jim?!?!?!
