I was up in Maine visiting friends (actually shipmates, a very rare thing for me when I was sailing) and drove past while criss crossing the state; went back on race night. In '84 if I recall.

My bucket list is short these days. I've been about everywhere I wanted to go to. I'll have to go back thru and count the tracks that have closed since I went there. Some closed before I got the chance to go there....Ascot...Danbury... Islip...Little Springfield.....etc[/QUOTE]
I still have some that I would really like to see. My bucket list includes Thunder Road, Oswego, Bowman-Gray Stadium, Sun Praire, etc, etc.

Andrew if my memory hasn't failed me I think it was 2007 when I was at Oxford Plains, Bob Bahre I think was gone by then. He sure left his mark on N. H. racing.
No matter how many race tracks we travel to, there is no place like our home track, for you it was Oxford Plains, for me Oswego Speedway and then Manzy. I have always felt the bar was set high by that home track especially when it came to the Oswego Safety Crew.
Thanks for starting this thread, slowly some of the tracks I have forgotten are coming back.
