lebanon valley drag way : sunday oct3 - 74 and older nostalgia drag races with car show and swap meet . nice 1/4 mile track , fast racers and good show cars . swap meet isn't as big as the november swap but there is some pretty good stuff there normally . laid back atmosphere . food , beer , soda available . decent restrooms - good bleachers . if the weathers good and you feel like a drive here ya go . rain date is sat. oct9 . about 1 hour east of albany - rt90 to rt20 . correct me if wrong albany guys . lebanon valley drag way : first sunday in november - this a big swap meet . because of the valley's well rated dirt track there is of course alot of dirt items for sale but also drag/street related items . this ain't no craft show . rain or shine , bring your wallet and your carharts and gloves depending on the weather . first year i went it was 32.5 degrees and raining . other years pretty decent out . nuts and bolts to whole race cars for sale . trailers , engines , dragsters , dirt cars , quick change rears , headers , intakes etc . naturally alot of chevy etc stuff but i've seen/bought some buick parts also . some local speed shop etc vendors there also . the swap encompasses the whole parking lot , pit and staging lanes . good stuff goes early . del
