Of course I love the Springfield Mile, and did love little Springfield.
I love the half miles, Terre Haute and Perris are great.

Jerry very nice piece on Paragon. I just discovered this place 4 years ago and its one of my favorites. It reminds me so much of Silver Spring back east. Not that the tracks are similar but the atmosphere and the grass roots racing they put on. I'm coming back in June and can't wait.

Like Justin Hatten said a couple of years ago, I can't count the number of times I've left Tri-State Speedway saying "My God, I think that was the best sprint race I've ever seen."
Jerry, couldn’t have said it better myself.:applaud:

[Quote]Come to think of it, the only track I've ever walked out of with the thought I will never return has been Kentucky Speedway. [Quote]

Z-man, I agree with ya. The facility is great but the management is the worst I ever seen. You are not allowed to bring any food or drink into the track but ONE unopened bottle of water (that’s right ONE). To get a burger+ coke will cots you $9.00 (no joke). It takes me longer to get out of the Ky speedway IndyCar race than it does to get out of the Indianapolis 500. I keep telling myself that I won’t go back but the IndyCar races there are great, so I guess I will be back this year.
