Have been to all except Kamp, and each is racey and unique in its own way. The facilities at L'burg are second to none. Kokomo great racing, rest rooms need upgrading. Bloomington a great traditional experience. THAT big, fast lots of memories. Gas City, great racing, but one particular gripe. As a fan who travels over a 1000 miles for Sprint Week I find it irritating that no matter how early we get there all of the primo seats are covered with "reserved" blankets, etc. I often saw seats go completely unused or at least not used for much of the show. While I understand that one must be sensitive to the regular show fans, why not clear the grandstand for special events so that we all have an equal chance at seats.

Tri State Speedway is the top for me. I've been to all of these tracks except Kokomo and the new configuration at the Burg. No matter how many different places I've seen none have ever been as good as the very first track I went to at Haubstadt. Terre Haute is a close second because that guy in the 20 car seems to take home a lot of hardware when he races there.

Kokomo has the best racing! You can go to any weekly show at Kokomo and see some of the best racing the US has to offer. I've been going to races for over 30 years, and have been to each track in the great state of Indiana many times over and my money will go to Kokomo. Tri-State has some slide jobs and some good racing, but Kokomo seems to be a hammer down track with a distinct high groove and low groove and many times a middle groove with cars moving all around the track to pass. You can usually see 3 and 4 wide throughout a race.
