The Long Island Hot Rod Association built a strip on land donated by J. Rich Steers, owner of Steers Sand and Gravel Works, at the Steers gravel pit off Ocean Avenue. The first races may have been in June 1955. The first one the public was invited to was September 11, 1955, and races ran every other Sunday.
