On Sunday's, engines couldn't be fired up till 1pm. Too many big shooters moved into the area and complained about the noise. Kinda like a-holes who move near an airport and complain about the planes flying overhead. I guess the rule making authority in Bridgehampton didn't (does not) give a ***t about heritage and stuff like that. They do hold a half azzed car show and rally thought in the center of town. Kinda wonder why they even bother.

5/23/65 - It musta been quite a day. 12,000 were lucky enough to be there. Note the Ferrari GTO with street plates.
