Just thought as probably a great deal of racing buffs do as to where are some of the Band C rigs now that are not in use or to who have they gone too. 1. Melville Time bandits B truck. I believe it's in GCP ,but not being used. And Melville's C? have no clue. 2. Mineola Bully boy's B truck. Do they still have? 3. Islip Terrace B and c. I think they still have their B rig and did C go to Miller Place? 4. Huntington Manor Buldogs.Not sure if they still have their B? 5. Blue Point Mighty midgets.Still have B? 6. Bayport Red devils,Still have rigs? 7. Patchouge 40 theives ,still have rigs? 8. Oceanside Eggnoggers, still have rigs? 9. Freeport dead end kids,still have rigs? 10.Massapequa, where are their rigs now? 11.Syosset Night raiders where are heir rigs now?
Would be nice if these rigs were all on the track with some team and not sitting arond

Thanks! LOl That was easy. I guess if i went way back that would be harder . Like Center Moriches indians. Smithtown clamdiggers ( I found an old Smithtown fire dept. brochure. It said the drill team was the pride of the dept!) I know Northport Mud hens have their c as a parade piece. Do you know what happened to Riverhead's old B rig(more recent one)? And what's happening with the Yellow hornets and Rascals this year? have they merged? I also heard Rocky point and Medford were looking for a B.

Here's a few more, East Norwich spooks specials,do they still have their B truck. Glenwood Greeenhorns any rigs left? Hewlett Smokey Stovers? Is Bohemia's old B rig Holbrooks, that had been Hauppauge's and Nesconset's. Love the history of these's trucks. BTW predict CI # 1 for the win in the states Saturday.

You forgot all about Wyandanch Indians. My understanding was, last I had heard 4 months ago, tha "Danch" was still storing their trucks. Way to go out on a dangerous limb predicting the State Champions for Saturday. Maybe Islip or N. Lindy will give them a good fight.

Well, those two tied teams are the 2 powerhouses of racing. If one doesn't win the other usually does. I just had a hunch something would happen to CI this week. And it almost resulted in a "Dark Horse" team stealing their thunder. Anyways, Congratulations to the top 5 teams, and the Frogs .
BTW-- some more teams I have to wonder about: Hagerman Gamblers, Oyster Bay Teddy's Boys, and the TailDraggers from N. Babylon.

I see on Sayville's B rig a Hagerman's Gamblers logo and Holbrook rebel's guess they combined? I would think Patchouge and Bayport would of combined with with Sayville too since Patchouge had Sayville's driver at one point,think his name is john always with a stogey. BTW what happened too St. James and Coram at the states, Ridge is kinda like their track too, must of been hard to watch the states and not participate on your home field.

Sayville is combined with Hagerman and Holbrook, don't think any Holbrook personel are running with them this year. Patchoque, St.James, and Coram are not racing.
