(44) Races down from the last few years...

Although 25 were in a foreign country, a record I would assume. (also costly in $200 for border crossing tolls)
(5) new tracks: Brownstown Speedway, Terre Haute, Indy Fairgrounds, Waynesfields Motorsports Park, Ventura Raceway
(2) Tracks in the same day twice, Toledo/Fremont and Anderson/Terre Haute.
(5) Provinces/States: Ontario, Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, California
(18) tracks: Brownstown Speedway, Columbus Motor Speedway, Eldora Speedway, Toledo Speedway, Fremont Speedway, Oakshade Raceway, Flatrock Speedway, Anderson Speedway, Indy Fairgrounds, Terre Haute Action Track, South Buxton Raceway, Ohsweken Speedway, Delaware Speedway, Waynesfield Motorsports Park, Attica Raceway Park, Ventura Raceway and Fort Wayne Coliseum.

I do have pictures of it all...

I shoot from May til September at my hometrack on Saturdays limiting my Friday travelling.

You guys put me to shame, but with the Sprint and midget weeks and Sunday night shows I have a hard time hitting those numbers.

My tally for the year was the worst since I was a teenager, so bad I'm embarrassed to post it. But what I missed more than the racing, was seeing all of our great friends we've made over the past years. (My favorite part anyway!)

Not as many as most of you guys, but I did alright for my limited income. I went to 11 tracks in 2 states. Saw sprints and nearly every race, mostly winged ASCS and SST w/ one WoO, midgets, winged modifieds, late models and lots of modified and limited modifieds.

And yesterday I gave my favorite bomber driver $100 toward her 2010 season. Go Shelbi!

I got blamed for throwing firecrackers at the pavement race,and it wasnt even me!! Be careful when "Dynamite Don" is around.

Counted the speedways I went to last yr,and came up with 30. That was down from 42 the yr before.
