History of Riverhead Raceway

From the Track

Riverhead Raceway is one of the oldest stock car race tracks in the country, having been built in 1949. It is a one-quarter mile asphalt, high-banked oval which includes a Figure 8 course.

The raceway is located one mile east of the last exit on the Long Island Expressway (495) at exit 73. This is where the north and south forks of Long Island begin, making the raceway just minutes from the Hampton resort area on the south fork and the wine country on the north fork.
