I never heard of this before now. Interesting.

I've passed that stadium probably hundreds of times throughout my life and would have never guessed racing took place there! Cool article!

Ive visited the site before, pretty neat place. my family had a shop in Paterson and grandpa was active in the business district. when he died in '89 they named a street after him by our building, behind Paterson pd.
