Pat and I attended 111 races in 2019 starting out in New Zealand (wonderful trip) and ending up in Arizona. Along the way we hit 60 different tracks and 20 were new ones in 11 states and one new country. Six new tracks in New Zealand in January and six new tracks for last year in New Zealand in December. Two of the best were the USAC midgets at Grandview and the Action Track USA in Pennsylvania. Gas City USAC show with Shane Cottle nipping CJ Leary might have been the best in Indiana. Attended Lincoln Park 12 times and 11 times at Kokomo. It was a fun year filled with many highlights and memories and meeting new friends and reuniting with old ones.

Look forward to a great 2020 racing season and see you all down the line somewhere!!!

Bruce and Pat Eckel
