3 Runs at Long Island Motorsports Park (aka Long Island Dragway, West Hampton Dragway) 1996. 1. Mike "The Fishkid" Trilivas' Blue and Yellow monster powered Camaro (with some happy juice) - This was a No Time pass, but from the looks of it, he's running really fast! 'Fish' was a legend in the drag racing community, was well known on and off the track, and one of the 'Boys from Greece' - he unfo...

Giving a favorite tune of mine, "Keros" , composed by Nikos Oikonomidis, a try on the laouto....

Here we go! Demonstrating the sound of this beautifully crafted [and well used] Greek island laouto (lute) made by Dimitris Rapakousios, in Athens 2013. The laouto (of the mandocello/mandolin family) uses a re-entrant tuning, similar to that of the ukelele, utilizing 8 strings in 4 courses, 3 of which are tuned in octaves (yes, like a 12 string guitar!). The Greek island (or mainland, or 'gener...

It’s making me a much, much better pilot but these little things are so temperamental! Better luck next week…. “I’ll take an ...

You’re a real raceway park fan if you knew to try and grab tickets for seats under the tree on the pit side for the summer nats.
@@kevski2323 best seats !
The day the nitro died.
I felt like I lived here from the late ‘80’s to early 2000’s. Swap meets, Diesel Truckin’ Nationals, Summer Nationals, most other nationals, amateur nights, …everything I could go to. Most of the best memories of my teens to my 30’s. Man enough to say I teared up watching this. Goodbye old friend. Thanks for the video and some closure. Yea, I miss it that much.
@@DidntSay that was my goal :) When i was flying over the track this day, they had just announced the closing 2 or 3 days earlier .. i was in tears! Ill be posting some digitized footage from late 90’s, early-mid 2000’s soon
@@JThemelis That would be great!!
Levittown PA shouting out ,great video I’m 62 now and the memories of E Town I’ll always have .raced moto-cross there and had a blast,
As gut wrenching as the closure of Raceway Park was for tens of thousands of participants and spectators.. Just IMAGINE the devastating effect on the NAPP Family. 3 Generations have their legacy ripped from them because there is no compromise with intruders and crooked developers who KNOW in advance that the property is being used for a particular purpose. Due to the proximity of the airport you can no longer even fly a drone over your own property... TOO DAMN MUCH GOVERNMENT. God Bless the Napp Family. They saved lives by redirecting young men who might otherwise have gone down a different path... Unintended consequences but this time for the positive.
Same here
I raced my vr6 VW Jetta down this track. I won against my component tho. FTW!
2026 etown coming back mark my words!
I’m marking those words, I’m hopeful, but it’s hard to believe!
@@JThemelisNot gonna happen 😢
@@6bblbird104 i know, bud… idk where people hear these rumors and then dont say from where… when we all know its not happening. You should look for the documentary about RP, and follow the owners fb page- hes been posting endless vintage video clips!!! All we can do is keep its memory alive always.
@ I am very friendly with the owners as I worked there for 17 years. The chances of the dragstrip reopening are virtually zero. Sad
Hi thx for sharing yeah i would agree rapidfire looks more solid.. the steadview colours looked better . Curious is youre goggles v2 for quad diversity ? I may try steadyview and rapidfire together 👌
First time I was there when I was 12 miss that track
Film brings many tears. First visit was in late 60's as a 13 year old. Many visits as a drag crazy kid in my teens. Met Berserko Bob in the 80's and became a corporate sponsor with Chevrolet and GMC Truck for 17 years. Continued my relationship with Vince Meli. Met everybody who was anybody in drag racing. Napp family could not have been more gracious to me. Forever memories, but sad today! Bob Feldman
I remember October fest Junior dragser's. Camping in the parking lot. Good times
OMG so sad
Ο χορός είναι από τους Φούρνους και λέγεται εκεί "Λέρικος" . Η τραγουδίστρια Θάλεια Σπανού με την οποία είχα συγγένεια , έβγαλε το όνομα "Κουρσάρικος" και διαδόθηκε στα χορευτικά από τη Δ. Στράτου. Στη σελίδα μου Λαογραφία και έρευνα γράφω αναλυτικά περί χορών Ικαρίας, Φούρνων και Σάμου.
Ο χώρος δε ξέρω γιατί λέγεται Λερικος, ως Λεριος καθώς δεν έχουμε σκοπό όμοιο μ αυτόν. Βέβαια μοιάζει με άλλους λερικους σκοπούς
@@Leros_7 Ο σκοπός ο ένας που χορεύουν στους Φούρνους είναι ίδιος με της Λέρου. Με τον ίδιο χορό με το ίδιο όνομα, στους Φούρνους χορεύουν και την μελωδία του Καβοντορίτικου. Η παράδοση έχει περίεργα και τα ονόματα των χορών που δηλώνουν καταγωγή, στους τόπους που αναφέρει η ας πούμε καταγωγή, μπορεί και να έχουν κάτι λίγο διαφορετικό ή να μην υπάρχει τίποτα από τον χορό . Πχ. Στη Ρόδο λένε Κρητικό ένα χορό τους. Στην Κρήτη είναι έτσι; Όχι ακριβώς. 'Αλλο παράδειγμα, στη Λέρο υπάρχει ο χορός Καριώτικα. Υπάρχει στην Ικαρία αυτός ο χορός μουσικά ή χορευτικά; Όχι. Είμαι από την Ικαρία και τους Φούρνους. Γίνονται αυτά στην παράδοση.
@@Κος-ε8β Ο Κρητικός της Ρόδου εδώ είναι Ροδητικος. Ευχαριστώ για την απάντηση
It’s sad I’ve got a lot of great memories at this facility ! It like a lot of the racers are gone ! Rest in peace !!! S/P - S/G forever !
Words are never enough so sad
rich napp wants the track back there is a huge rumor of it coming back lets make it true…. Make Etow great again
That would make me and my Mustang very happy again! Almost 5 decades of the best memories there for me!
Ain’t much to look at lol
Lol a mountain.. camelback… plains… some more flat lands… 😂
there was reports of a meeting talking about the track reopening and a funny car driver was in it who said the track might come back
Details/Sources?
@@JThemelis A old funny car driver works with etown and said this is dont know his social media or anything but he was a part of this meeting
I was there on opening day in 1966, on leave from basic training at Ft. Dix, I was 20 years old.
so was i on opening day, got my top fuel license there nov 1969 , atco's gone also leaving only island dragway in great meadows which is still like it was when it opened in 1962
This was where Scott Kalitta died
Yessir
Great video i miss the drag strip they got ride of it for copart and shit box drifting
My works the side some reason don’t
Hi John, hope all is well! Is this laouto still available? Thank you!
Grew up at this track every year coming to the summer nats and night of fire once and a whole driving from Long Island as a kid felt like such a long trip but was such an exciting weekend. Running around getting autographs being a kid 10,000hp then as I got older I started do the import shows and swap meet. Really such an amazing track,I live in fla now and go to the gatornats still get butterflies walking through the stands as you see the track for the first time that day. Love drag racing,love cars,love my dad for taking me. Great video don't ever take it down it's one of the few we have left,ty!! ETOWN4ever😢😢😢
I’ll never take this down! Same story for me too! And from LI as well! To us, Etown was like Yankee Stadium for die hard baseball fans
Remember when there was no blacktop for parking it was just grass, when it would rain we we do donuts out in the field ,such an amazing special place so sad I showed my dad he couldn't even watch it so many memories insane yes not big sports family hard-core cars, trucks, tinkering,the game was on but like you the track was our Yankee stadium thanks bud the song fits it so well
@@vinnygallino5217 same w me! We were never a sports fam, all i knew was drag racing and cars… my dad came to the usa from Greece as a teen in 1969 and ended up street racing and going to NY National, Island, Atco, Westhampton, ETown and the famous Connecting Highway 😂 Thanks for sharing and keeping etowns memory alive!
My crappy ipad isn't responding to my fingers
El mejor lugar.
Oh thank god... I thought I had malware!
❤
Excellent
Thank you!
So beautiful. Μπράβο !
Thank you!!!
bruh
Just sad.....no reason that it had to go down this way. The NHRA event paid the whole year plus profit.
Yeah...but I guess in comparison to COPART, they get even MORE profit. I get it...i guess good for the Napp's, stinks for the rest of us.
SsssHbgbhhh
Same
Do one for atco
Believe me, the next time I head down towards Philly/South NJ/MD areas..I'm doing it... so upsetting
@@JThemelis Ya hopefully island and cecil stay open
What a shame, I remember the Summernationls, Sox & Martin, Jungle Jim Lieberman, Don Garments and Cha Cha Muldowny... So much history gone...😪
Wow! Beautiful, dude! Mad respect for people with the patience and dexterity to learn an instrument. 🫡 Looks like a traditional Greek stringed instrument.. is that right? 😳
Yes! This is a lute, aka laouto.. its a steel stringed lute in the mandolin family :)
@@JThemelis oh cool, I know what a lute is... I had think I had only ever seen a smaller version. Either that or it was a bigger man playing it.. 😂 My dad actually played mandolin growing up, and I picked him up a custom-made Mandola many years ago. I believe it's just a large mandolin. Very cool man. 😎
Sick rip, broski!! 🤘🏻😤🤘🏻🔥🔥🔥
Thanks! This is a go to spot nearby with plenty of obstacles/things to fly around
Nice and smooth 👍
Great work for now keep it going 🎉
Well that settles it.. this is my new favourite song...😂😂😂 Great dive, bruv!! 🤘🏻🔥
😂😂😂🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Oh, man! The second attempt was going so good until crash!
Wasnt it?!?! 😂
Good attempt, brotha! You were so close!! Did your quad break after this run? Building dives should be fun AF... there's a 4-story limit in my town, so I think I'm going to take a trip to the big city and try to find a building, or maybe a radio tower outside of town. 😅
Thanks!!! With all the weirdness, im surprised i managed that much… plus it was sucking my batteries dry in seconds! Hopefully nee batteries will help a bit.. it didnt break altogether, just battery brace came loose… nothing a rubber band wont fix until a replacement frame arrives!
@@JThemelis awesome man, glad to hear you're getting some more gear and lipos. 💪🏻 I use a UV curing glue products called Bondic. It's great for fixing whoop frames, while ya wait.
Was this the steadyview v2 or v3 receiver?
At the time, i think v2… this was just a little over a year ago. If i can confirm that, ill post back here
@@JThemelis you buy the new V3? 😅 Mines otw now
@@user-eq2ug7in7b unfortunately i sold them last July! I now have Orqas with rapidfire - i love them but i still think Skyzone 04x was/is tops
Nice rip brother! That 03 looks great.
Thank you! 🙌🏼
Nice rip bro!
Blessed to have been here, highlight was meeting Chuck Comella . Sad this venue is closed😢👍🏿🇨🇦🍺🇺🇸
