Oh man I remember hearing this tune every weekend when I was younger. Sitting at home with my brother, mom and late father. It was either World of Outlaws, drag racing, swamp buggies or something else. Steve Evans, Brock Yates............this just made my night!

the days of dirt racing that was what many will say were the best! I enjoy seeing this sort of history still going and alive and hearing all the crazy Syracuse stories from tons of guys to drivers, campers, car helpers, everyone. wish I coulda been alive to be able to grow up in the late 80's and 90's of NY state Dirt Racing!

Thanks for posting this race, I watched the whole thing, start to finish. A lot of things to miss about the Syracuse Mile, the biggest is the unpredictability of who would win. Thanks to Diamond P sports, great job.

I had the opportunity to attend this event. It was my first time at Syracuse. I liked the fact that the fans sat fairly close to the cars. My only criticism would be the width of the track. They should have doubled the width of the track. You would have easily seen three abreast racing. It was really chilly that day, which I am certain cut down on tire wear. For a daytime show, it was pretty good.👍🏻

Gov Cuomo is getting his just desserts for destroying this fantastic, very unique, very beloved race track!! People, do U realize that the first car race on this horse track happened in the early years of auto- mobiles? About 1902 or 1905!! Look it up!Hope he gets impeached, legal sexual convictions, does federal prison time. He clearly listened to the rubber cycling pant, gay, environmentalist crowd: Destroy the NYS FAIRGROUND TRACK & grandstand, replace it with an amphitheatre ( which could have been put any where) & U will prevent the yearly production of tons of Greenhouse gases!! In the years 1979 to 1983 when I could afford to attend Super Dirt Week , each year Gov Mario Cuomo called the track live, giving his sincere best wishes to all the race teams, graciously thanked all the race fans & race teams for attending & participating in SUPER DIRT WEEK making it one of the largest, most important, popular, rich annual events in NY STATE. Now we have to live with the actions of his bonehead son!! Most of my best, happiest times in life were designing, building, setting up, tuning, racing big & small block modifieds, & crewing on a friend's 360 Gambler Sprint car, 1980 to 1992.Merritville, Ransomville & Humberstone Speedways I considered my home tracks . 1980 our team was the last Canadian race team to regularly race at Weedsport & the specials at Rolling Wheels with our driver being co- worker, friend, former Weedsport Modified track Champ, sadly now deceased, Harry Sittler. Ya now and again, Davey Moore, Pete Bicknell, Brian Stevens crewed by his legendary dad Ray Stevens & uncle Neville. Too many have passed away already!! Including friends who were ardent fans. I live in SW St. Catharines close enough to clearly hear Merritville Speedway, but am disabled & can't afford any luxuries, not even all my foodstuffs. I am Marty Roseman.

Agree with you, the track was quite narrow down the backstretch, but it was that way because of the inner, cinder, horse racing track
