It's the annual Duryea Hill Climb (named for the Duryea automobile, which received its road tests on the SAME TRACK). The 52nd Duryea Hillclimb is that Sat. and Sunday, from City Park (13th St.). Racing begins at 9 a.m. both days...and concludes at 4 p.m. Included are formula cars, production, modified street, modified showroom, pro rally, and vintage. Cars race one at a time up the hill, against the clock, passing through 10 curves along 2.3 miles. Some hit 100 mph and complete the course in 2 min. Spectators are welcomed free of charge; lots of good vantage points along the way. A field of 70 competitors is expected. If any LUGgers want to get together for this, contact me off-list at garcia@chesco.com and we'll arrange a post-car get-together.
