RIP Carmine, those were the days. Nothing like it.

I find it odd that the USTA has no mention of his passing. Really strange.

  They have never heard of him but they know his famous son

Truly one of the greats. In my early days, pre-Meadowlands, when I was playing YR and RR, countless times I loved the guy, and just as many times hated him, LOL. But I always had respect for his talent and ability. Like I said, truly one of the greats.

no real opinion that matters,   Every time he writes i fall to sleep with boredom,    The game is in rough shape because of the old timers that believe in the three little pigs lived happily ever after,     Any new blood out there SOS  SOS   SOS

Like you, I spent my time cashing and tearing up tickets following him at RR. Probably, one of the best driver colonies I ever watched. Insko, Fontaine, Dauplaise, Dokey, Farrington, Gilmour, etc. He was always in the "top ten" in that group. I rode by his incredible estate in Colts Neck NJ about 10 years ago. Just beautiful.

Condolences to Ellen and family.

Carmine was a dominant force in Metro NY racing for decades.
although he did a whole bunch of driving for Buddy Regan, I don't recall him getting that many grand circuit drives---was that by his preference?
Deepest sympathies to Eric and the rest of his family.
