5 decades for me. Probably first races were at queen city/tri county raceway which was in west chester ohio. Late 60s.
We moved to Harrison Oh In 71 and I remember we had a chicken coop that was about a hundred feet long, We tore that down in 72 and I was six or so and a wasp was chasing me and stung me. Anyway we went to Lawrenceburg later that evening and its what I can definately say was my first sprint race I remember being at. The fair was also going on. Anyway, about halfway thru the program my leg was swelling from the wasp sting and we went home.
Did that several times a year until both my brother and I were early teens then sports and girls etc got in the way, But once I got my license in 83 I was almost never miss at the Burg on Sat nights. Didn't start traveling till 85 i think and that was bloomington and PVille.
Then 86 I started hitting dozens of tracks. Eldora, finday, fremont, attica, KC, Old Portsmouth. Brownstown, North Vernon IRP, Winchester to name a few.
