Top Secret ehh? Sounds like a great time.

 

Seneca Army Depot was a high security weapons facility (top secret?) until it was decommissioned as part of base alignment and closed in September 2000. It was one of 3 such facilities in the country. Savanna Army Depot in Illinois, and Sierra Army Depot in CA are the other two. Don't ask me how I know about Sierra.

 

I went last year, it was a pretty cool event

 

I'm going out on a limb here, but I think they came up with the name because the event is held on part of the old Seneca Army Depot. I knew people that worked there but they would never tell you what they did or what was housed there. (most likely munitions)

 

The Army called them Special Weapons. Everyone else called them Nukes.

 

Oh My ! a 2 wheel rice burner

looks like a lot of fun and great cars

 

Great to see that old air strips and ***orted former government property, is still being used to have great fun with old hot rods! Great video as well!
Thanks from Dennis.

Love the video! Looks like a very cool event.

 

They did a helluva job keeping it a secret! And that is one beautifully produced video!
Cat's out, this'll be the next big circus!

 

I see some Canadians are on the way, there was some last year too, truly an international event

 

I’m going to have to make it there next year. Only about 4.5 hrs from my place.

 

I'll be heading over tomorrow for awhile with some buddies. It's about 20 miles away. I'll try to remember to take some pix.

 

I dropped the ball getting my own car and trailer ready, but here's some photos I stole from Facebook of today's activities

 

Nice group for a Friday

 

And a video of some of the drags

Here's some pictures from Saturday. What a great time, lots of HAMB friendly cars. Flatheads, bangers, hemis, early olds, sbcs, and few others powered coupes roadsters and some feds. I took some videos of cars running down the track but that will have to come a little later.

 

This was a great time, no off topic wheels, no off topic engines, people just having fun with cars.

 

The north east has just been boiling over with cool traditional hot rod race events the last few years! Love it!
