Riverhead Raceway

Riverhead Raceway is a quarter-mile oval race course with a Figure 8 course, located in Riverhead, New York. Since Westhampton Raceway's closing in 2003, it is the only auto racing venue on Long Island. It started being developed in 1949 and opened as a dirt track in 1951, before completely transitioning to asphalt in 1955. The racetrack was also renowned for the tall Native American statue dubbed "Chief Running Fair" that stood at its entrance until it was devastated by Hurricane Sandy in 2012 but repaired by Christmas and is still standing in its original spot.
