Glad you made it there too RB I remember how much you were in awe of the view from our trackside camp.
So nice to have your own potty and NO line

My Dad took me to lime rock when I was a kid. It was in the early 80's when Car and Driver used to do the showroom stock racing there, enjoyed that.
Went to a Cart race at Gateway International raceway in St Louis. That was very enjoyable as we had hospitality tickets and everything was first class.
Bucket list item is to drive the ring that is the ultimate to me.

I’ve been to Seekonk many times with my Dad. It was 30mins or so from where I lived in Rhode Island.

That was a great spot, Mom! The track kept doubling back right in front of us.

It was about the same for me from where I lived in R.I. We used to go when they had the spectator races.
Did you ever go on the Go Karts in Seekonk?
We started going when it was just a circular track and then they redid it big time, that was a lot of fun. Seekonk Grand Prix – Competitive Fun for the Whole Family!

As a kid I spent a lot of time at Cayuga and St. Thomas drag strips in ON. Also went to races all over the east coast (NY, NJ, and once to Gainesville. Lots of amazing memories as my dad and his best friend raced together and I was always dad’s “pit crew.”

I’ve gone to a few races…F1 in Montreal, Delhi and Austin, Indy races at mid-Ohio (plus drove around that track one year in the rain instead of having a driver with me lol) Toronto Indy race…Mom where was that NHRA race we went to? I’ll know it as soon as you say it!!

I’ve done track days at Shannonville, the DDT at Mosport, Beaverun in PA, Gingerman and another track that’s slipping my mind.
