Might it be possible to add a similar
“map” of the original Bridgehampton “around the houses” road racing course, Howard?

I have such of the original Watkins Glen road course but have never seen a similar Bridgehampton
version.

Thanks for considering,

Rog Patterson

About

The six Vanderbilt Cup Races held on Long Island from 1904 to 1910 were the greatest sporting events of their day, and the first international automobile road races held in the United States. The races had a far-reaching impact on the development of American automobiles and parkways. This site provides comprehensive information on the races, the Long Island Motor Parkway and current Long Island automotive events, car shows and news.
