My dad, my uncle & I are thinking about going to the Gold Crown Nationals at Tri-City Speedway at the end of September. I was wondering if anyone had any info about the race track and the area. How was the car count last year? Anything cool to do during the day? Gotta like a program that includes only midgets & sprints for the weekend. Thanks.

tons of stuff to do 20 mins from downtown St. Louis

Last year they cancelled it 2 days before the show due to heavy rains in the focast kinda bs but they did make the right call it poured all weekend

Have not spent the time to determine how close everhthing is to the track or hotel that I am staying at. However, a tour of the Bud plant and a visit to the arches are high on my list of things to do.

Might even try to find an afternoon ballet.

Be aware....there is only one Arch....:2:
