Live 15 Miles south of Lakeside Speedway in Kansas and 35 west of valley Speedway in Missouri. But don't go to either that much anymore. Go to more races in Indiana than either. favorite track and one I go to more than most would be Kokomo. Wifes favorite would be Lincoln Park.

I’m about 25 miles from Paducah International Speedway, which reopened a couple years ago, and they are finally having a sprint car race in 2024 and 110 miles from Tri-State Speedway, which is what I consider my home track. I grew up about 55 miles E of Tri-State Speedway and attended my first race there in 1964.

The Springfield Mile is the closest and the Bettenhausen is my favorite race of the year. Jacksonville is close and the track I make it to the most. It feels like home there.

I'm jealous....2 hr. drive to see mediocre winged cars OCCASIONALLY in NY state, 4 hrs. to good winged racing in Pa.....or Eastern Storm one week a year
& please, no wisecracks about "no such thing as good winged racing"....
Flew to Indy for BC39

We went to Atomic Speedway when I was growing up, right now I live 40 minutes East of Eldora and 30 minutes South of Waynesfield. The Four Crown is the event that I have not missed for many years. I really look forward to Smackdown and Sprintweek although I don't usually get to go to those in person.

Putnamville's Lincoln Park is the closest. Three nights at the Dirt Track at IMS would been the place I attended the most last year.

I look forward to the BC39 each year. Followed closely by both the Midget and Sprint Weeks here in Indiana.
