Not that many people care, but Oxford Speedway was the last great Grateful Dead weekend on the East Coast. 7/2-3/88. Amazing time and great shows. Plus, I got a lift in the parking lot to Boston and still made it to Belmont for most of the 4th of July card. The shuttle was great back then...and a LOT cheaper.

To the OP of this thread, while I enjoyed your chemically induced rant...I'm actually serious about enjoying Belmont. I want to enjoy all six months at Belmont-Saratoga-Belmont, and while Saratoga is an amazing place, and the plusses outweigh the minuses by a huge amount, working 50 straight days has it's drawbacks. I'm blessed to have the job I have, and Saratoga is heaven, but Belmont doesn't exactly suck. It's great being here every day. Plus, I enjoy doing things in NYC, and the only sort of annoying thing about Saratoga is that it goes fast...and Summer is essentially over when you get back to the City.
