Comments
Howard,
Saturday, Oct. 2 will be this year’s Bridgehampton Rally sponsored and managed by the Bridgehampton Historical Society for cars 1959 and older. We hope to get a good representation of cars that raced on the streets of Bridgehampton 1900-1920, then post-war 1949-1953. The Bridgehampton Race Circuit became active in 1956, and cars that raced (or could have) on the track through 1959 are also welcome.
We hope you’ll consider bringing The Beast out for the day, whether to run in the rally or just display. It’s the day before Hallockville, so maybe an East End weekend is in order.
Thanks,
Earl Gandel
p.s. -The Bridgehampton Historical Society has a website, and their phone is 631-537-1088.
