1960 Montgomery SCCA Nationals The Montgomery SCCA nationals were run on an abandoned SAC base near Newburg, New York.  The course was simple,  but its location so close to New York City attracted thousands of spectators and press and the best cars from coast to coast.  It is now a thriving regional airport.
