So, I do miss the days of the National Speedway Directory, and yes, I bought one in person from Allan Brown. I also miss the days of the NSSN.

However, I do enjoy the ability to plan an entire season of races in the middle of February. I do enjoy the knowing where all of the series are going to be and what my options are.

I also think that as I have gotten older, that I have gotten much more selective in what I would go see. In the past, any type of class would get me excited. Now, I am getting very more selective. If the track does not have a premier class that I want to see, I will not attend. I also quit going to marathon tracks. There is track near me that routinely rolls out 7 to 8 classes and I have not been to that track in years.

I also don't see how streaming is saving the local tracks.
