New York Citayyyy!!!

Post by Erich Reichert »

Found out there's a track in the Bronx which is pretty interesting. Reminds me of the old days when there was a huge indoor place in Queens.

Wow, cool! I had no idea. Looks like the 2 and 5 go right there too, there's a station right across the street. Looks like it's in Highbridge park, I think there's mtb trails and bmx jumps in there too.

I'm trying to see what kind of regular schedule they have. I just see stuff about a big event last month. Also wondering if they have power for chargers.

Exciting news, thanks Erich!

Too bad all the tracks on long island are pretty much gone.

Funny thing is you only live 3 miles away! :lol:

they are opening a new track in lindenhurst soon, although progress is slow. this is after the long island raceway/hobby closed in farmingdale, i didnt race there much as i didnt like the facility for certain reasons

Where are you from? I'm a little over an hour north (you said down... only people from north say it that way lol), we must be near each other.

Does anybody know why America's Hobby Center went out of business in Manhattan? They seemed like a well stocked and well run place. There was usually customers in there. The old man was a bit ornery, but once you got to know him is was alright.
