Accord Speedway — Local services in Town of Rochester

I attended the "King of the Catskills" race on Friday September 20, 2013 and the "Gobbler" race on Saturday November 30, 2013. Attending the Gobbler race with me was my daughter and her friend. I have been attending dirt track races for many years. I prefer this style of racing over ALL others including NASCAR. There is a lot of passing, side-by-side racing, bumping and banging, etc. It is quite amazing the speeds that these cars attain. The Big Block Modifieds are 800hp 467ci beasts!. For the Gobbler race the track was beautifully manicured. Whoever they had working the track is an artist. This is is a short track...however the corners are wide sweeping turns. Many recognizable names showed up for the Gobbler. There was a car from Bear Ridge in Vermont and Delaware International in Delaware. People like Stewart Friesen (Niagara Falls Canada....now lives around Albany/Utica NY) and Tim McCreadie from east of Lake Ontario NY (of World of Outlaws fame) were there. Very impressive were Anthony Perrego (won the Big Block race) and young Tyler Dippel who unfortunately was involved in a wreck. There were 3 classes of racing. The event was so well managed...hats off to whoever orchestrated all of this... Congrats to Rocky Warner (who won the big Sportsman race in Syracuse in 2012) and Charlie Houghtaling. … Good purses and lap money. WE THOROUGHLY ENJOYED OURSELVES. This time of year was on the cold side but there was no wind. Looks like most of the stands were full…all seats provide an excellent view (nice stands). Accord Speedway is located in the southern end of the Catskills…what a beautiful area and nice drive to the facility. The concessions offered...

I will never go back to this place. With COVID still a threat especially to young unvaccinated children they packed their place full. They did not have ways to sanitize your hands except by the bathrooms. There was no way to stay a safe distance away and people are so ignorant they got right next to you in your face. I left the venue earlier never ever will I go back. I would suggest that they not allow this monster truckz back here.I will be reporting them to the Health Department.

We were also charged $15 to park then they allowed others to park where ever they wanted clearly not charging them. Well these individuals blocked us in so we couldn’t get out and when I went for help no one came out to assist.

The only saving grace is I only paid $16 a ticket anything more than that would have been...

We went for a monster truck show. It was very poorly run. You couldn't hear through the speakers. It was way overpriced. They said no outside food or drink but saw plenty of people who brought stuff in so apparently they weren't checking. The show was to start at 2 and it didn't start til almost 230. The drivers must not have been experienced or something as they didn't perform any skills. The breakdow. and set up for the motorcycles and cannon was long. They didn't even announce intermission. "freestyle" was a joke they were just driving around the track. Once the show was over we left and got out and it was only 345. The show was short. It was a...
