At Bristol they were getting straightaway speeds near 170, they don't get that fast at Eldora. I was glad I got to go to Bristol that first year (2000) but it looked like the racing was better the next year. Wish they still held a race there.

People rave about Belleville as well. Brooke Tatnell told me once that speed wise it's def. faster than Eldora.
