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.

Actually, Tracy Hines set the track record at Winchester in 2009 in a non wing with a lap time of 13.964 seconds. It was cold that day and the track was lightning fast!
