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.

George, good catch! Thanks!!
When I was 12 or 13, I saw one of the GT350 H cars come up the driveway next door to our house in Ann Arbor. I ran to look at it and Carroll Shelby himself was at the wheel! He was friends with our neightbors. They introduced me and before I knew it Mr Shelby was giving me the ride of my life. I will never forget the look on his face as we broke every speed limit in our neighborhood. I think he was having more fun than I was!
Have a great time at Merchant Marine Academy tomorrow,wish I could be there. By the way did you get the pics I sent you about 2 wks ago of that Packard?
