The new Roosevelt
Raceway website has been launched and it can be viewed at www.rrtrotting.com The site has many photos,
videos and several newspaper articles about drivers and races from the
Roosevelt Raceway glory days.
Everyone who visits the
website should read the newspaper articles, especially “Six for Cruise” and a “Perfect
Night for Haughton” both located on the Hall of Fame page. Also the article “RR
1960” on the About page is an excellent story about the history of Roosevelt
Raceway and it's founder George Morton Levy.
The website is a work in
progress and the released version consists of seven pages including a Hall of
Fame, Videos, International Trot, and a Then & Now page. In the near future
the current pages will be expanded on and other pages will be added, including
an American Trotting Championship, Messenger Stake, Gallery, and Event pages.
The websites theme is
“Promoting the Past to Promote the Future”.
There is also a link on
the website that takes you to a Amazon page that is dedicated to mostly harness
racing books. The website was designed and developed by Roosevelt Raceway
co-author Freddie Hudson with assistance from Mike Lizzi, Trade Martin, Ray
Cotolo and Roosevelt Raceway book co-author Billy Haughton.
