Driving to see a Race?
 

I'm not talking about drivers or owners or mechanics or officials. I'm not talking about flying. How far have you driven to watch a race? How many states have you driven to and seen a race in? I've driven from my Cincinnati home to see races in:

Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Kentucky, Tennessee, Connecticut, Pennsylvania.

This question is inspired by Al Consoli's response on another thread.

I have driven to Florida. I guess that's farther than IL. The difference with me is that I kicked the habit when I got married, and am no longer addicted.:O: Went "cold turkey" for a long time..... Now I need the rest.:D

Re: Driving to see a Race?
 

I've driven to:

Reading, PA
Milwaukee, WI (actually West Allis)
Tampa, FL (though to be honest, we went there on vacation and took in a race I happened to find out about.)

The longest drive is from here in The 'Burg to Bloomington. There just is nooooo good way to get there. :wink

It makes a great deal of sense to drive from PA to IN, but to do it in reverse means you've got a serious problem. Get this boy to Rehab!!!!

That makes it even worse. Let me get this straight .....you go from IN to PA in February to watch a winged race and freeze off your "Knuggies" at the same time.:eek::eek:

Driven to K'Ville once by myself for the Nats., Eldora a few times solo, with my dad or a friend, Chili Bowl, Bloomington, Haubstadt and Terre Haute several times. Been to Attica for a couple of Brad Doty Classics as well.

Furthest so far this year was the Bowl. Other than that maybe a trip to Gas or Larryburg. Prolly no trips to Eldora and K'Ville.
